DECISION & ORDER

In a proceeding pursuant to article 10 of the Family Court Act, the mother appeals from an order of the Family Court, Kings County (Susan S. Danoff, J.H.O.), dated February 6, 2019. The order directed that the Administration for Children's Services not send the mother notice of future permanency hearings or permanency hearing reports, that the mother not be permitted to order transcripts of the court proceedings, and that the mother not be permitted to view any court files or documents.

ORDERED that the appeal is dismissed, without costs or disbursements.

A foster care placement terminates upon the child's 21st birthday (see Family Ct Act § 1055[e]). Here, the subject child turned 21 years old in March of 2020. Accordingly, the subject child is no longer subject to the order appealed from, and the appeal must be dismissed as academic (see Matter of Julian B. v Williams, 97 AD3d 670).

MASTRO, J.P., CHAMBERS, IANNACCI and WOOTEN, JJ., concur.
