In the Matter of Naomi A., respondent,

v David L. A., appellant,

(Docket No. F-08536-19/19A)

DECISION & ORDER ON MOTION

Motion by the respondent to dismiss an appeal from an order of the Family Court, Queens County, dated November 14, 2019, on the ground of the fugitive disentitlement doctrine.

Upon the papers filed in support of the motion and no papers having been filed in opposition or in relation thereto, it is

ORDERED that on the Court's own motion, the appeal is dismissed, without costs or disbursements, on the ground that no appeal lies as of right from a nondipositional order in a proceeding pursuant to Family Court Act article 4 (see Family Ct Act § 1112) and leave to appeal has not been granted; and it is further,

ORDERED that the motion is denied as academic.

BALKIN, J.P., CHAMBERS, MILLER and LASALLE, JJ., concur.
