Matter of Nodelman v. Ruvinov

Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of New York, Second Department
Dec 18, 1995
222 A.D.2d 590 (N.Y. App. Div. 1995)

Opinion

December 18, 1995

Appeal from the Family Court, Kings County (Ambrosio, J.).


Ordered that the order is affirmed, without costs or disbursements.

The divorce judgment provided for monthly child support payments. The appellant contends that he is not required to pay any child support pursuant to a provision of the stipulation of settlement which purportedly offset payments for equitable distribution against child support.

Where the terms of a settlement agreement conflict with a judgment of divorce, the judgment of divorce governs ( see, Rainbow v Swisher, 72 N.Y.2d 106, 110). Moreover, the appellant's motion to modify the judgment of divorce based upon this very same argument was denied by order of the Supreme Court, Kings County (Schneier, J.), dated May 19, 1993, and was previously rejected by the Family Court. No appeals were taken from those prior determinations. Accordingly, the appellant's motion was properly denied. Miller, J.P., Pizzuto, Joy and Goldstein, JJ., concur.
