11053-11054. IN RE SJUQWAN ANTHONY ZION PERRY M., ETC., A DEPENDENT CHILD UNDER THE AGE OF EIGHTEEN YEARS, ETC., CHARNISE ANTONIA M. res-ap, LUTHERAN SOCIAL SERVICES FOR METROPOLITAN NEW YORK pet-res — Carol Kahn, New York, for Charnise Antonia M., ap — Todd D. Kadish, Brooklyn, for Steven M., ap — Carrieri & Carrieri, P.C., Mineola (Ralph R. Carrieri of counsel), for res — TAMARA A. STECKLER, THE LEGAL AID SOCIETY, NEW YORK (AMY HAUSKNECHT OF COUNSEL), ATTORNEY FOR THE CHILD.—Order of disposition, Family Court, New York County (Susan Knipps, J.), entered on or about March 28, 2011, which, upon a finding that respondent mother violated the terms of a suspended judgment, terminated the mother’s parental rights and, upon the additional finding that respondent father’s consent was not required for the adoption of the subject child, committed the custody and guardianship of the child to petitioner agency and the Commissioner of Social Services for the purpose of adoption, unanimously affirmed, without costs.

The father failed to demonstrate that he provided the child with fair and reasonable financial support, according to his means. Therefore, even assuming he visited regularly, he failed to satisfy the requirements of “consent father” under Domestic Relations Law §111(1)(d) (see Matter of Latricia M., 56 AD3d 275 [1st Dept 2008], lv denied 12 NY3d 705 [2009]). As a “notice father,” his rights were limited to notice of the proceedings and an opportunity to be heard concerning the child’s best interests, which he received (see Matter of Alyssa M., 55 AD3d 505 [1st Dept 2008]).
