Opinion
January 16, 1996
Appeal from the Supreme Court, Rockland County (Weiner, J.).
Ordered that the order is affirmed insofar as appealed from, with costs.
It is a well settled general rule that the most appropriate remedy for a perceived inequity in a pendente lite order is a prompt trial ( see, Mayer v Mayer, 209 A.D.2d 271; Gianni v Gianni, 172 A.D.2d 487), and such an order will not be modified on appeal except under compelling circumstances ( see, Raniolo v Raniolo, 185 A.D.2d 974; Suydam v Suydam, 167 A.D.2d 752). Inasmuch as the trial of the instant divorce action has already commenced and the wife has made no showing of compelling circumstances herein, we decline to depart from the general rule by modifying the Supreme Court's order. Thompson, J.P., Sullivan, Krausman and Florio, JJ., concur.
