MEMORANDUM AND ORDER
Appeal from an order of the Family Court of Schenectady County (Kevin A. Burke, J.), entered May 17, 2021, which, in two proceedings pursuant to Family Ct Act article 6, modified a temporary order of custody and visitation.
Rotisha PP. (hereinafter the mother) and Rasool QQ. (hereinafter the father) are the parents of a child (born in 2016), and petitioner Melissa OO. is the subject childs grandmother (hereinafter the grandmother). Although the notice of appeal and the order appealed from only list two proceedings, the record makes clear that a number of other proceedings pursuant to Family Ct Act article 6, as well as several other proceedings pursuant to Family Ct Act article 8, were also pending before Family Court, some since 2019. Throughout the pendency of these proceedings, Family Court issued several temporary orders of custody and parenting time. Through a temporary order entered March 11, 2021, Family Court granted the parties three-way joint legal custody of the child, while the grandmother was granted primary physical custody and the parents were each granted daytime parenting time as they and the grandmother may mutually agree. On March 22, 2021, the grandmother filed an amended petition. During a virtual appearance on May 3, 2021, the mothers counsel complained that the mother had been unable to exercise parenting time with the child for over a month because the father had been withholding the child. After allowing each party to speak to their respective counsel, the grandmothers counsel confirmed that the grandmother also had not seen the child in approximately two weeks, despite requesting that the father return the child to her care. Family Court, in an oral ruling, then issued a new temporary order basically continuing the provisions of the March 11, 2021 temporary order, but directing the father to return the child to the grandmothers care by 3:00 p.m. on that day and suspending the fathers parenting time for a week. Said order was reduced to writing through a temporary order entered on May 17, 2021. The father appeals from that temporary order.
Family Courts May 2021 temporary order was made pending a hearing on all proceedings and issues before the court. No appeal as of right lies from a nondispositional order (see Family Ct Act § 1112[a]; Matter of McCoy v. McCoy, 134 A.D.3d 1206, 1207, 19 N.Y.S.3d 792 [3d Dept. 2015]; Matter of Harley v. Harley, 129 A.D.2d 843, 844, 513 N.Y.S.2d 857 [3d Dept. 1987]). Because the father did not seek permission to appeal, the matter is not properly before us (see Family Ct Act § 1112[a]). Further, we decline to treat the fathers notice of appeal as a request for permission to appeal (see Matter of Suzanne QQ. v. Ben RR., 138 A.D.3d 1210, 1210, 27 N.Y.S.3d 899 [3d Dept. 2016], lv dismissed 27 N.Y.3d 1126, 36 N.Y.S.3d 881, 57 N.E.3d 75 [2016]; Matter of Harley v. Harley, 129 A.D.2d at 844, 513 N.Y.S.2d 857).
