Opinion

November 10, 1997

Appeal from the Supreme Court, Kings County (Greenstein, J.).

Ordered that the order is affirmed, with costs.

We find no basis to conclude that the Supreme Court improvidently exercised its discretion in apportioning counsel fees in this case ( see, Matter of Budin, Reisman Schwartz v Giamboi, Reiss Squitieri, 224 A.D.2d 325; see generally, Matter of Cohen v. Grainger, Tesoriero Bell, 81 N.Y.2d 655; Lai Ling Cheng v. Modansky Leasing Co., 73 N.Y.2d 454).
