DECISION & ORDER ON MOTION

Motion by the appellant on an appeal from an order of the Family Court, Queens County, dated October 13, 2009, to vacate the order, to direct his release from incarceration pending hearing and determination of the appeal, for poor person relief, and for the assignment of counsel.

Upon the papers filed in support of the motion and the papers filed in opposition thereto, it is

ORDERED that the branches of the motion which are to vacate the order and to direct his release from incarceration are denied; and it is further,

ORDERED that the branches of the motion which are for poor person relief and for the assignment of counsel are denied as unnecessary with respect to leave to prosecute the appeal on the original papers (see Family Ct Act § 1116), and otherwise denied as academic in light of the representation by the appellant that he has retained counsel; the appeal will be heard on the original papers (including a certified transcript of the proceedings, if any) and on the briefs of the appellant, the respondent, and the attorney for the children, if any; the parties are directed to file nine copies of their respective briefs and to serve one copy on each other (22 NYCRR 670.9[d][1][ii]; Family Ct Act § 1116).

MASTRO, J.P., RIVERA, FLORIO and BALKIN, JJ., concur.
