MATTER OF PERCY

Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of New York, Second Department.
Jul 24, 1989

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

The Family Court's decision to place the appellant in a New York State Division for Youth, Title III facility was not an improvident exercise of discretion, as the record clearly demonstrates that the placement is the least restrictive available alternative consistent with the appellant's needs and the need for protection of the community (see, Family Ct Act ยง 352.2; Matter of Katherine W., 62 N.Y.2d 947). We have considered the appellant's remaining claim and find that it is unpreserved for appellate review. Mangano, J.P., Eiber, Sullivan and Balletta, JJ., concur.
