Head Matter:
In the Matter of the Application of Benny Sitowsky, Respondent, for a Writ of Habeas Corpus to Determine the Custody of Merrill Sitowsky, an Infant. Lillian Sitowsky, Appellant.

Opinion:
In a habeas corpus proceeding, the mother of an infant appeals from an order which, inter alia, sustained a writ of habeas corpus and granted visitation rights to respondent, the infant's father. Order affirmed, without costs. The record amply supports the finding, implicit in the order appealed from, that respondent did not abandon his child. (Matter of Benning [Nigro], 303 N. Y. 775.) Nolan, P. J., Beldock, Murphy, Ughetta and Kleinfeld, JJ., concur.
