[*1]In re Brandon S., A Person Alleged to be a Juvenile Delinquent, Appellant.
Presentment Agency
Tamara A. Steckler, The Legal Aid Society, New York
(Raymond E. Rogers of counsel), for appellant.
Zachary W. Carter, Corporation Counsel, New York (Ronald E.
Sternberg of counsel), for presentment agency.
Order, Family Court, New York County (Clark V. Richardson, J.), entered on or about April 10, 2013, which adjudicated appellant a juvenile delinquent, upon a fact-finding determination (Family Court, Rockland County [Sherri L. Eisenpress, J.]) that he committed an act that, if committed by an adult, would constitute the crime of sexual abuse in the first degree, and placed him on probation for a period of 12 months, unanimously affirmed, without costs.
The court's finding was not against the weight of the evidence (see People v Danielson, 9 NY3d 342, 348-349 [2007]).
There is no basis for disturbing the court's credibility determinations, including its evaluation of inconsistencies.
THIS CONSTITUTES THE DECISION AND ORDER
OF THE SUPREME COURT, APPELLATE DIVISION, FIRST DEPARTMENT.
ENTERED: MAY 8, 2014
CLERK
