Petitioner-appellant having moved 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, Chautauqua County, entered in the Office of the Clerk of said Court on May 29, 2014,

Now, upon reading and filing the affidavit of William McKinney, Jr., sworn to June 19, 2014, and the notice of motion with proof of service thereof, and due deliberation having been had thereon,

It is further ORDERED that the motion insofar as it seeks permission to proceed as a poor person is denied with leave to renew upon the submission of a new motion that includes an affidavit describing appellant's current living arrangements and the method by which he supports himself and setting forth sufficient facts so that the merit of the contentions can be ascertained (see CPLR § 1101 [a]).
