Opinion
March 29, 2000.
Appeal from Order of Monroe County Family Court, Bonadio, J. — Support.
PRESENT: PIGOTT, JR., P. J., GREEN, WISNER, SCUDDER AND KEHOE, JJ.
Order unanimously affirmed without costs.
Memorandum:
Family Court properly denied the objections of petitioner to the Hearing Examiner's order denying his petition for a downward modification of child support and granting respondent's cross petition for an upward modification of child support. The Hearing Examiner properly determined that respondent established a change of circumstances warranting the increase in the best interests of the children ( see, Matter of Michaels v. Michaels , 56 N.Y.2d 924, 926). The record establishes that the combination of respondent's income and the payments received from petitioner is inadequate to meet the children's needs ( see, Matter of Brescia v. Fitts , 56 N.Y.2d 132, 140; Matter of Gianniny v. Gianniny , 256 A.D.2d 1079). The remaining contentions of petitioner were not raised in his objections to the Hearing Examiner's order and are thus beyond the scope of appellate review ( see, Matter of Ouimet v. Ouimet , 193 A.D.2d 1099 ).
