No appeal lies from the order of disposition since it was entered on default (CPLR 5511; see, Matter of Tyrone W., 223 A.D.2d 367; Matter of Geraldine Rose W., 196 A.D.2d 313, lv dismissed 84 N.Y.2d 967). Moreover, we find that the Family Court's decision declining to vacate the default was proper where the evidence demonstrated that prior to the fact-finding hearing, respondent submitted an affidavit agreeing with the agency's position that the child's best interests were served by the proposed adoption by her great-aunt and foster mother and consenting to that adoption, and that at the intake hearing, at which respondent was present, his attorney informed the court that respondent, who was incarcerated, waived further appearances. Under these circumstances, the court properly declined to open the default based on respondent's unsupported and contradictory allegation, made for the first time months later, after the conclusion of both the fact-finding hearing and the dispositional hearing, that he had wanted to appear at the hearings. We note as well that respondent's conclusory allegation that he maintained "some" contact with the child is insufficient to show a meritorious defense. We have considered respondent's remaining contentions and find them to be without merit.
