PETITIONER DID NOT HAVE THE STATUTORILY REQUIRED CLOSE RELATIONSHIP WITH THE RESPONDENT IN THIS FAMILY OFFENSE PROCEEDING; FAMILY COURT DID NOT HAVE SUBJECT MATTER JURISDICTION (FIRST DEPT).

The First Department, reversing Family Court, determined Family Court did not have subject matter jurisdiction over this family offense proceeding because the petitioner and the respondent were not members of the same family or household and had not been in an intimate relationship:

The court lacks subject matter jurisdiction over this family offense proceeding brought by the foster mother of respondent’s biological children. Petitioner failed to establish that she and respondent, who are not members of the same family or household, are or have been in an intimate relationship (see Family Court Act § 812[1][e] …). Petitioner testified that she did not even know respondent’s first name. It appears from the record that petitioner’s contact with respondent has been limited to scheduling visitation with the children at the agency and, perhaps, interacting with respondent when she went to petitioner’s home to pick up the children for visits. Matter of Veronica C. v Ariann D., 2020 NY Slip Op 03612, First Dept 6-25-20
