DECISION & ORDER
Appeal from a decision of the Family Court, Kings County (Dean Kusakabe, J.), dated August 30, 2016. The decision, insofar as appealed from, memorialized the court's finding that the mother was in contempt of court for failing to comply with a prior order of that court dated April 1, 2014.
ORDERED that the appeal is dismissed, without costs or disbursements.
As the paper appealed from simply memorialized the Family Court's prior findings, it constituted a decision. Since no appeal lies from a decision, this appeal must be dismissed (see Matter of Rodriguez v Rodriguez, 150 AD3d 1016, 1017; Schicchi v J.A. Green Constr. Corp., 100 AD2d 509).
MASTRO, J.P., ROMAN, SGROI and COHEN, JJ., concur.

Aprilanne Agostino
Clerk of the Court
