Matter of Lazaro v. Lazaro

Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of New York, Second Department
May 6, 1996
227 A.D.2d 402 (N.Y. App. Div. 1996)

Opinion

May 6, 1996

Appeal from the Supreme Court, Richmond County (Clark, J., Cognetta, J.).


Ordered that the appeal is dismissed as academic, without costs or disbursements.

The parties' 18-year-old son, having attained the age of majority, can no longer be the subject of a custody order ( see, Domestic Relations Law § 2; Belsky v. Belsky, 172 A.D.2d 576). The issues raised on appeal are therefore academic ( see, Reich v Reich, 149 A.D.2d 676). Thompson, J.P., Altman, Goldstein and McGinity, JJ., concur.
