IN THE MATTER OF FRANCISCO ANTHONY C. F. (Anonymous), Jr. WESTCHESTER COUNTY DEPARTMENT OF SOCIAL SERVICES, respondent; MARIA MAGDELENA F. (Anonymous), appellant. IN THE MATTER OF CHRISTINE MARIE M. (Anonymous). WESTCHESTER COUNTY DEPARTMENT OF SOCIAL SERVICES, respondent; MARIA MAGDELENA F. (Anonymous), appellant.

DECISION ORDER

ORDERED that the order of fact-finding and disposition as to the child Christine Marie M. is affirmed insofar as appealed from, without costs or disbursements; and it is further,

ORDERED that the appeal from the order of fact-finding and disposition as to the child Francisco Anthony C. F., Jr., is dismissed as academic, without costs or disbursements.

The Family Court may revoke a suspended judgment after a violation hearing upon a finding supported by a preponderance of the evidence that the parent has failed to comply with one or more of its conditions (see Matter of Caitlin H., 287 A.D.2d 715; Matter of Alka H., 278 A.D.2d 326). The evidence presented at the violation hearing supports the Family Court's determination in the proceeding as to the child Christine Marie M. that the mother failed to satisfy certain conditions of the suspended judgment and that the termination of her parental rights was in the best interests of that child (see Matter of Alka H., supra at 327; Matter of A. Children, 255 A.D.2d 510, 511).

The mother's remaining contentions on the appeal with respect to the child Christine Marie M. either are unpreserved for appellate review or without merit.

Since Francisco Anthony C. F., Jr., was born on May 19, 1984, he has attained majority age and appellate review of the disposition in the proceeding involving him has been rendered academic (see Matter of M. Children, 254 A.D.2d 27).

PRUDENTI, P.J., RITTER, FEUERSTEIN and CRANE, JJ., concur.
