IN THE MATTER OF DABBENE v. DABBENE

Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of New York, Second Department.
Oct 1, 2002

ORDERED that the order is affirmed, without costs or disbursements.

The record supports the Family Court's determination that, based on a preponderance of the credible evidence, the former wife committed a family offense, warranting the issuance of the order of protection (see Family Ct Act ยง 812; 832; Matter of Hogan v. Hogan, 271 A.D.2d 533).

Under the facts of this case, the Family Court's failure to hold a dispositional hearing does not require reversal (see Matter of Annie C. v. Marcellus W., 278 A.D.2d 177; Matter of Quintana v. Quintana, 237 A.D.2d 130; cf. Matter of Alice C. v. Joseph C., 212 A.D.2d 698).

ALTMAN, J.P., GOLDSTEIN, H. MILLER and RIVERA, JJ., concur.
