In the Matter of Maureen ROBERTS, respondent,v.Stephen GRAY, appellant.
Stephen Gray, Bronx, N.Y., appellant pro se.
In a child support proceeding pursuant to Family Court Act article 4, the father appeals from an order of the Family Court, Kings County (Turbow, J.), dated October 7, 2010, which denied his objections to an order of the same court (Baur, S.M.), dated April 6, 2010, which, after a hearing, inter alia, denied his petition for a downward modification of his child support obligation.
ORDERED that the order dated October 7, 2010, is affirmed, without costs or disbursements.
Family Court Act § 439(e) provides that an aggrieved party may submit specific written objections to the final order of a support magistrate within 35 days after the mailing of the order to such party. Since the father did not timely submit written objections to a prior final order of the Support Magistrate which formed the basis for the order appealed from, the Family Court properly denied his objections on this ground ( see Matter of Pedone v. Corpes, 24 A.D.3d 559, 559–560, 807 N.Y.S.2d 107; Matter of Mayeri v. Mayeri, 279 A.D.2d 473, 719 N.Y.S.2d 582).
