Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of the State of New York

Decided January 26, 2012PublishedCited by 7 opinions

1Opinion of the Court

A sound and substantial basis in the record supports the determination that it is in the child’s best interests to remain in the custody of his father (see Lubit v Lubit, 65 AD3d 954, 955 [2009], lv denied 13 NY3d 716 [2010], cert denied 560 US —, 130 S Ct 3362 [2010]). The court reached this determination after a full evidentiary hearing at which it had the opportunity to hear the testimony of the witnesses, including both parents, and interview the child in camera (see Eschbach v Eschbach, 56 NY2d 167, 171-172 [1982]; Matter of Nelissa O. v Danny C., 70 AD3d 572 [2010]).
