The petitioner, Administration for Children's Services (hereinafter ACS), commenced this proceeding pursuant to Family Court Act article 10, alleging, inter alia, that the father neglected the subject child. In an order of fact-finding and disposition dated September 23, 2021, the Family Court, among other things, upon the father's consent to a finding of neglect without admission pursuant to Family Court Act § 1051 (a), found that the father neglected the child and, after a dispositional hearing, released the child to the custody of the father under the supervision of ACS for a period of 12 months upon certain conditions. Thereafter, ACS moved, inter alia, to modify the order of fact-finding and disposition so as to place the child in the custody of the Commissioner of ACS. In an order dated April 19, 2023, the court, among other things, after a hearing, granted that branch of the motion which was to modify the order of fact-finding and disposition to the extent of extending the period of supervision of the father by ACS for 12 months upon certain conditions. The father appeals.

[*2] The appeal has been rendered academic by an amended order of the Family Court dated May 11, 2023, and by an order of the same court dated August 28, 2023 (see Matter of Angel L. IV [Angel L. III], 235 AD3d 757 [2025] [decided herewith]).

In light of the foregoing, the application of the father's counsel for leave to withdraw as counsel is denied as academic (see Matter of Sylvie S. [Cynthia W.], 195 AD3d 850, 850-851 [2021]). Chambers, J.P., Ford, Taylor and Love, JJ., concur.
