In Order for Family Court to Review a Support Magistrate’s Order, Specific Objections Must Have Been Made to Preserve the Issues Raised in Family Court

The Third Department determined that Family Court’s order must be vacated because it was based upon issues not raised in objections to the Support Magistrate’s order.  Because Family Court acts as an appellate court with respect to orders by the Support Magistrate, any errors must be preserved by objections:

…”[A]n order from a Support Magistrate is final and Family Court’s review under Family Ct Act § 439 (e) is tantamount to appellate review and requires specific objections for issues to be preserved” … .  The issues noted by the court were not included in the father’s objections …. Matter of Porter v D’Amano. 516522, 3rd Dept 1-9-14
