FATHER DENIED HIS RIGHT TO COUNSEL IN THIS MODIFICATION OF CUSTODY PROCEEDING (THIRD DEPT).

The Third Department, reversing Supreme Court, determined father had been denied his right to counsel in this modification of custody proceeding for the reasons explained in Matter of Hensley v DeMun, 163 AD3d 1100, 1101 [2018]:

For the reasons stated in Matter of Hensley v DeMun (supra) – the appeal by the father regarding Supreme Court’s resolution of the two petitions filed by the mother of the nonsubject child – we find that the father was denied the right to counsel, and we must therefore reverse and remit for further proceedings. Matter of DeMun v DeMun, 2018 NY Slip Op 07987,  Third Dept 11-21-18
