Opinion

February 24, 1994

Appeal from the Supreme Court, Queens County (Herbert A. Posner, J.).

While we agree with the IAS Court that defendant failed to demonstrate that his obligation to support should be relieved or suspended, it is our view, given the acrimonious history and circumstances of this case, that the directed psychotherapy would not be fruitful, and we modify accordingly.
