Appeals from (1) an order of the Family Court, Suffolk County (David Freundlich, J.), dated September 15, 2014, and (2) an order of fact-finding and disposition of that court, also dated September 15, 2014. The order, after a hearing, determined
that the mother violated the terms of a suspended judgment dated May 1, 2014, and revoked the suspended judgment in the best interests of the subject child. The order of fact-finding and disposition, after fact-finding and dispositional hearings, found that the mother permanently neglected the subject child, terminated her parental rights to the child, and transferred guardianship and custody of the child to the Suffolk County Department of Social Services for the purpose of adoption.
ORDERED that the order and the order of fact-finding and disposition are affirmed, without costs or disbursements.
The Family Court may revoke a suspended judgment after a hearing if it finds, upon a preponderance of the evidence, that the parent failed to comply with one or more of its conditions (see Matter of Mashlai D.M. [Jalisa R.D.], 110 A.D.3d 813, 971 N.Y.S.2d 900 ; Matter of Jalil U. [Rachel L.-U.], 103 A.D.3d 658, 660, 958 N.Y.S.2d 791 ; Matter of Chanteau M.R.W.
