Opinion
June 16, 1998
Appeal from the Family Court, Bronx County (Marjory Fields, J.).
Petitioner's case record was properly admitted into evidence under the business record exception to the hearsay rule ( Matter of Brooke Louise H., 158 A.D.2d 425, 426; Matter of "Male" G., 97 Misc.2d 283). Family Court's findings that respondent failed to plan for the child's future despite diligent efforts by petitioner, and that it is in child's best interests to free him for adoption by his foster parent with whom he has lived since he was three weeks old, are amply supported by the requisite degrees of proof.
Concur — Sullivan, J. P., Rosenberger, Rubin, Williams and Mazzarelli, JJ.
