[*1]In re Isabel T., Petitioner-Appellant,

v

Lucien W., Respondent-Respondent.

Tennille M. Tatum-Evans, New York, for appellant.

Order, Family Court, New York County (Mary E. Bednar, J.), entered on or about March 17, 2015, which, after a fact-finding hearing, dismissed petitioner's family offense petition against respondent, unanimously affirmed, without costs.

Petitioner failed to establish, by a fair preponderance of the evidence, that respondent had committed the family offenses of harassment in the second degree and disorderly conduct (Matter of Tamara A. v Anthony Wayne S., 110 AD3d 560, 560 [1st Dept 2013]). Family Court found neither party to be credible, and its finding is supported by the record and entitled to deference (see

Matter of Buskey v Buskey, 133 AD3d 655, 656 [2d Dept 2015]).

THIS CONSTITUTES THE DECISION AND ORDER

OF THE SUPREME COURT, APPELLATE DIVISION, FIRST DEPARTMENT.

ENTERED: APRIL 14, 2016
