DOUBLE HEARSAY SUPPORTED THE DENIAL OF THE APPLICATION TO HAVE A REPORT MAINTAINED BY THE CENTRAL REGISTRY OF CHILD ABUSE AND MALTREATMENT AMENDED TO BE UNFOUNDED AND EXPUNGED (THIRD DEPT).

The Third Department determined that double hearsay supported the denial of petitioner’s application to have a report maintained by the Central Register of Child Abuse and Maltreatment amended to be unfounded and expunged:

… [O]ur review of the record confirms that the double hearsay evidence introduced at the expungement hearing was sufficiently relevant and probative to the inquiries of whether petitioner drove under the influence of alcohol with the children in the car and whether she failed to exercise a minimum degree of care in providing the children with proper supervision and guardianship by misusing alcohol to the extent of losing control of her actions … . Specifically, statements made to the investigating caseworker by the oldest and middle children, which were memorialized in the indicated report, supported the conclusion that petitioner drove under the influence of alcohol with the children in the car on at least two occasions in May 2019. Such statements were corroborated by petitioner’s admissions that, after roughly five years of sobriety, she relapsed in or around mid-May and that she “had a buzz” while driving the children. Further, the oldest child reported to the caseworker that, on the evening of May 29, 2019, she observed petitioner to be intoxicated, “sick” and “throwing up,” which prompted her to call her maternal grandparents. The oldest child’s account was corroborated by the maternal grandfather, who stated that he believed petitioner to have been intoxicated on the night in question and that it was “an ongoing concern.” Matter of Elizabeth W. v Broome County Dept. of Social Servs., 2021 NY Slip Op 06732, Third Dept 12-2-21
