In the Matter of Anthony R., a Person Alleged to be a Juvenile Delinquent, Appellant.
[871 NYS2d 1]—
[MAJORITY]
Order of disposition, Family Court, Bronx County (Juan M. Merchan, J.), entered on or about January 10, 2008, which adjudicated appellant a juvenile delinquent, upon a fact-finding determination that he committed an act which, if committed by an adult, would constitute the crime of course of sexual conduct against a child in the first degree, and placed him with the Office of Children and Family Services for a period of 18 months, unanimously affirmed, without costs.
The court’s finding was based on legally sufficient evidence and 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 determinations concerning credibility. The evidence supported the conclusion that the course of sexual conduct extended “over a period of time not less than three months in duration,” as required by Penal Law § 130.75. The victim’s testimony, coupled with other evidence, circumstantially established a time line (see e.g. People v Paramore, 288 AD2d 53 [2001], lv denied 97 NY2d 759 [2002]) that began in approximately September 2006 and extended until at least May 2007. Concur—Tom, J.P, Andrias, Friedman, Catterson and Acosta, JJ.
