1Opinion of the CourtMillard L. Midonick, J.
This appears to be the case of first impression in which a proceeding on a writ of habeas corpus has been referred by the Supreme Court to the Family Court to determine such proceeding, under section 651 of the Family Court Act, with the same powers possessed by the Supreme Court.
A writ of habeas corpus was issued on the 28th day of August, 1962 by the Supreme Court of the State of New York, Bronx County, on the petition of Esther Mittenthal, the mother and only surviving parent of Frederick Mittenthal, a minor, born January 2, 1946, for the purpose of regaining custody of said child.
