Opinion

Order, Family Court, New York County (Carol J. Goldstein, Ref.), entered on or about January 7, 2014, which, upon a fact-finding determination that respondent-appellant (respondent) had committed the family offense of harassment in the second degree, directed her to refrain from any communications with petitioner except through an attorney and to observe certain other conditions for a one-year period, unanimously affirmed, without costs.

Petitioner showed by a fair preponderance of the evidence that respondent, his sister, had committed acts warranting an order of protection in his favor (see Family Ct Act § 832).

We have considered respondent’s remaining contentions and find them unavailing.

Concur — Sweeny, J.P., Renwick, Saxe and Gische, JJ.
