This appeal must be dismissed, as the papers provided were patently insufficient for the purpose of reviewing the issues the father has raised (see Matter of Remy v Mitchell, 60 AD3d at 860 ; Matter of Zullo v Hom, 22 AD3d 675 , 676 [2005]; Matter of Rudick v Rudick, 16 AD3d at 514 ). Rivera, J.E, Leventhal, Belen and Roman, JJ., concur.
