Matter of Mabel

Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of New York, Second Department
Nov 13, 1984
105 A.D.2d 750 (N.Y. App. Div. 1984)

Opinion

November 13, 1984

Appeal from the Family Court, Queens County (Gallet, J.).


Order affirmed, without costs or disbursements.

Under the circumstances, it was not reversible error for the trial court to refuse to qualify the caseworker of the bureau of child welfare as an opinion witness on the issue of whether the child would be in danger if he was returned to his mother.

Furthermore, there was sufficient evidence to support the finding of neglect based on the mother's history of chronic undifferentiated schizophrenia and the likelihood of incidents of decompensation. Weinstein, J.P., Brown, Boyers and Eiber, JJ., concur.
