25 A.D.2d 901 (N.Y. App. Div. 1966)

Summary

In Matter of Fleischer v. Fleischer (25 A.D.2d 901) the jurisdiction of the responding court in a Uniform Support of Dependents Law proceeding to condition a support order with certain visitation rights to the respondent was questioned because there is no specific provision in article 3-A of the Domestic Relations Law for authority to grant such an order.

Opinion

May 3, 1966


Appeal from an order of the Family Court, Sullivan County. When these litigants were recently before us ( Matter of Fleischer v. Fleischer, 24 A.D.2d 667), we affirmed, after increasing the amount to be paid, an order of support for the dependent minors involved. The Family Court has now conditioned the payment of such support on appellant's compliance with certain visitation rights it granted the respondent. The sole question presented on this appeal is whether the Family Court had jurisdiction to condition the support order in the manner in which it did. We believe that it manifestly had such jurisdiction. The Family Court clearly had jurisdiction over the appellant against whom the order runs (Domestic Relations Law, § 34), and section 447 FCT of the Family Court Act clearly gives it the power to issue the order made in the present case ( Matter of Silvestris v. Silvestris, 24 A.D.2d 247, 251; Matter of Strecker v. Strecker, 10 A.D.2d 312, 314; Matter of Guyette v. Haley, 286 App. Div. 451, 461; see, also, Matter of Beddini v. Beddini, 281 App. Div. 701). Order affirmed, without costs. Gibson, P.J., Herlihy, Taylor and Aulisi, JJ., concur.
