Harold, Salant, Strassfield Spielberg, White Plains, N Y (Jeffrey Salant of counsel), for appellant.
THOMAS R. SULLIVAN, J.P., WILLIAM D. FRIEDMANN, SANDRA J. FEUERSTEIN and NANCY E. SMITH, JJ.
DECISION ORDER
ORDERED that the judgment is affirmed insofar as appealed from, without costs or disbursements.
"Equitable distribution presents matters of fact to be resolved by the trial court, and its distribution of the parties' marital property should not be disturbed unless it can be shown that the court improvidently exercised its discretion in so doing" (Oster v. Goldberg, 226 A.D.2d 515 ; see, Petrie v. Petrie, 124 A.D.2d 449, 450 ;Foxx v. Foxx, 114 A.D.2d 605, 606 ). The Supreme Court providently exercised its discretion in distributing the marital property in this case (see, Oster v. Goldberg, supra).
SULLIVAN, J.P., FRIEDMANN, FEUERSTEIN, and SMITH, JJ., concur.
