Constance v. Peter

47 A.D.3d 986 (N.Y. App. Div. 2008)

Opinion

No. 502091.

January 3, 2008.

Appeal from an order of the Family Court of Tioga County (Sgueglia, J.), entered January 2, 2007, which granted petitioner's application, in a proceeding pursuant to Family Ct Act article 10, to adjudicate respondent's child to be abused.

Andrew M. Dunn, Oneida, for appellant.

Christian Root, Tioga County Department of Social Services, Owego, for respondent. Peter Fee, Law Guardian, Vestal.

Before: Cardona, P.J., Peters, Spain and Lahtinen, JJ.


Following a hearing, Family Court determined that respondent sexually abused his young daughter. On appeal, respondent advances only one argument, namely, that Family Court erred in admitting a certain videotape into evidence without a proper foundation and/or authentication. This issue, however, was not properly preserved by an appropriate objection and, thus, has been waived ( see CPLR 4017, 5501 [a] [3]; Matter of Henry W., 30 AD3d 695, 696; Matter of Antonia QQ., 1 AD3d 841, 842; Matter of Karen BB., 216 AD2d 754, 756-757; see also Matter of Diamond K, 31 AD3d 553; Matter of "Baby Girl" Q., 14 AD3d 392, 393, lv denied 5 NY3d 704; Matter of Diaz v Santiago, 8 AD3d 562, 563). There being no other issue raised, we affirm Family Court's order.

Ordered that the order is affirmed, without costs.
