IN RE: Edmund OROK–EDEM (2023)

DECISION & ORDER

In related proceedings pursuant to Family Court Act article 4, the father appeals from an order of the Family Court, Richmond County (Alison M. Hamanjian, J.), dated February 14, 2023.  The order, in effect, denied the father's objections to (1) an order of the same court (Marjorie R. Steinberg, S.M.) dated September 14, 2022, which, after a hearing, granted the mother's petition to enforce the provisions of the parties' judgment of divorce awarding her child support and maintenance, and (2) an order of the same court (Marjorie R. Steinberg, S.M.) dated September 28, 2022, which, after a hearing, directed the father to pay child support in the amount of $1,713 per month.

ORDERED that the appeal is dismissed, without costs or disbursements.

It is the obligation of the appellant to assemble a proper record on appeal (see CPLR 5525;  Matter of Camarda v. Charlot, 208 A.D.3d 1323, 1323–1324, 174 N.Y.S.3d 282).  Here, the father's failure to provide this Court with the exhibits admitted into evidence at the Family Court hearing renders the record on appeal inadequate to enable this Court to reach an informed determination on the merits.  Accordingly, the appeal must be dismissed (see Matter of Camarda v. Charlot, 208 A.D.3d at 1323–1324, 174 N.Y.S.3d 282;  Matter of Petrosino v. Petrosino, 192 A.D.3d 1037, 1037, 140 N.Y.S.3d 760;  Matter of Gupta v. Kumar, 146 A.D.3d 886, 886, 44 N.Y.S.3d 766).
