Although respondent contends that the incident where he hid in petitioner's closet was a joke or that he merely intended to startle petitioner, based on respondent's "conduct as well as the surrounding circumstances," the court had a reasonable basis to infer that respondent's intent was to harass, annoy or alarm petitioner ( People v Kelly , 79 AD3d 1642, 1642 [4th Dept 2010], lv denied 16 NY3d 832 [2011] [internal quotation marks omitted]; see generally Matter of Kristine Z. v Anthony C. , 21 AD3d 1319 , 1320 [4th Dept 2005], lv dismissed 6 NY3d 772 [2006]).

Since “[o]ften there is no direct evidence of a [respondent’s] mental state” (People v Smith, 79 NY2d 309, 315 [1992]), intent may “be inferred from the act itself’ or from the respondent’s “conduct and the surrounding circumstances” (People v Bracey, 41 NY2d 296 , 301 [1977] [internal quotation marks and citations omitted]; see Matter of Kristine Z. v Anthony C., 21 AD3d 1319 , 1320 [2005], lv dismissed 6 NY3d 772 [2006]).
