In re Nicholas B.
Opinion of the Court
According the Family Court’s findings, particularly those as to witness credibility, the deference they are due (Matter of Irene O., 38 NY2d 776 [1975]), we see no reason to disturb the court’s finding that respondent was with the child at the time the child sustained his injury and failed to offer a reasonable explanation for said injury, and that the injury could not have reasonably occurred accidentally (Matter of Philip M., 82 NY2d 238 [1993]). Concur—Mazzarelli, J.P., Andrias, Sullivan, Lerner and Gonzalez, JJ.
