    In the Matter of Erik Dowgiallo, Appellant, v Kellie Williams, Respondent.
    [951 NYS2d 404]
   The Family Court properly vacated a temporary order of protection and dismissed the father’s family offense petition against the mother, without a hearing, as the petition failed to allege conduct by the mother that would constitute disorderly conduct or reckless endangerment (see Family Ct Act §§ 812 [1]; 832; Matter of Davis v Venditto, 45 AD3d 837, 838 [2007]; Matter of Jones v Roper, 187 AD2d 593 [1992]).

Further, the Family Court providently exercised its discretion in dismissing, without a hearing, the father’s petition to modify an existing custody order so as to award him sole residential custody of the subject child. The father was required to make “some evidentiary showing sufficient to warrant a hearing” based upon a subsequent change of circumstances (Matter of Mennuti v Berry, 59 AD3d 625, 625 [2009]), “such that a modification is necessary to ensure the continued best interests and welfare of the child” (Matter of Leichter-Kessler v Kessler, 71 AD3d 1148, 1149 [2010]; see Matter of Jean v Washington, 71 AD3d 1145, 1146 [2010]), and the father failed to do so.

The father’s remaining contentions are not properly before this Court. Angiolillo, J.E, Florio, Belen and Roman, JJ., concur.
