DECISION & ORDER
In a proceeding pursuant to Family Court Act article 8, Norman G. Dodd appeals from an order of the Family Court, Kings County (Rupert V. Barry, J.), dated January 26, 2022. The order, after a hearing, found that Norman G. Dodd had committed acts constituting the family offense of harassment in the second degree and directed the issuance of a final order of protection in favor of Ngozi Dodd and against him to run nunc pro tunc from January 7, 2019, through January 7, 2022.
ORDERED that the appeal is dismissed, without costs or disbursements.
An appellant is obligated to assemble a proper record on appeal, which must include any relevant transcripts of proceedings before the hearing court or trial court (see CPLR 5525; Matter of Camarda v Charlot, 208 AD3d 1323, 1323; Matter of Petrosino v Petrosino, 192 AD3d 1037, 1037; Matter of Leacock v Muhammad, 165 AD3d 942, 942). Here, the appellant's failure to provide this Court with all of the relevant transcripts of the Family Court hearing renders the record on appeal inadequate to enable this Court to reach an informed determination on the merits. Accordingly, the appeal must be dismissed (see Matter of Camarda v Charlot, 208 AD3d at 1323; Matter of Petrosino v Petrosino, 192 AD3d at 1037; see also McIntosh v Genesee Val. Laser Ctr., 121 AD3d 1560, 1561).
BARROS, J.P., CHAMBERS, MALTESE and DOWLING, JJ., concur.
