Matter of James

Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of New York, First Department
Sep 28, 1995
219 A.D.2d 569 (N.Y. App. Div. 1995)

Opinion

September 28, 1995

Appeal from the Family Court, New York County (Bruce Kaplan, J.).


For the reasons stated in Matter of Deshone C. ( 207 A.D.2d 756, lv denied 85 N.Y.2d 801), there is no merit to respondent's contention that the petition was jurisdictionally defective. Placement in a limited secure facility was justified by evidence at the dispositional hearing of a history of truancy and behavioral and emotional problems, and a need for intense supervision and control that makes the home of respondent's relatives an unsuitable alternative ( see, Matter of Frank C., 211 A.D.2d 596).

Concur — Rosenberger, J.P., Asch, Williams and Mazzarellli, JJ.
