| MATTER OF MATT F., PETITIONER-APPELLANT, V BILLIE F.,
RESPONDENT-RESPONDENT. |
Petitioner-appellant having applied for permission to proceed as a poor person and for assignment of counsel on the appeal taken herein from an order of the Family Court, Cattaraugus County, entered in the Office of the Clerk of said Court on March 20, 2014,
Now, upon reading and filing the certification of Fern S. Adelstein, Esq., dated April 4, 2014, and due deliberation having been had thereon,
It is hereby ORDERED that the application insofar as it seeks the assignment of counsel is denied on the ground that such relief is not authorized for the petitioner in a paternity proceeding (see Family Court Act §§ 262, 1120 [a]), and
It is further ORDERED that the motion insofar as it seeks permission to proceed as a poor person is granted, and
It is further ORDERED that the Clerk of the Family Court, Cattaraugus County, provide Matt F. with copies of all papers and transcripts of stenographic, digitally recorded, or audiotaped minutes, if any, of the proceedings had and filed in said Clerk's Office upon which the appeal is based.
