In the Matter of SHARON E. ORLANDO E., Appellant; COMMISSIONER OF SOCIAL SERVICES OF CITY OF NEW YORK, Respondent.

Ordered that the order of disposition is affirmed, without costs or disbursements.

The Family Court properly found that the father had sexually abused the child. The allegation of sexual abuse was conclusively proved by the father's conviction of sexual abuse in the second degree arising out of the same incident ( see, Matter of Suffolk County Dept. of Social Servs. [Michael V.] v. James M., 188 A.D.2d 603, 604, mod on other grounds 83 N.Y.2d 178; Matter of Denise J., 133 A.D.2d 687; Matter of Princess CC., 120 A.D.2d 917, 918).

It was in the best interests of the child for the court to deny visitation until the child's therapist approved and until the father demonstrated progress in a sex offender treatment program ( see, Matter of Star Leslie W., 63 N.Y.2d 136, 147-148; Matter of Commissioner of Social Servs. of City of N.Y. [Trudy I.] v. Leona W., 192 A.D.2d 602; see, e.g., Matter of Child Protective Servs. [Shavon G.] v. Mary G., 185 A.D.2d 339; Matter of Nicole B., 175 A.D.2d 205).

Bracken, J. P., Copertino, McGinity and Luciano, JJ., concur.
