Opinion
6050N.
May 10, 2005.
Order, Supreme Court, New York County (Jacqueline W. Silbermann, J.), entered December 9, 2004, which, inter alia, awarded defendant temporary maintenance of $1,500 per month, without prejudice to reconsideration after six months, and denied defendant any interim counsel and expert fees, unanimously affirmed, without costs.
Before: Mazzarelli, J.P., Ellerin, Nardelli, Williams and Catterson, JJ., concur.
We decline to disturb the award, there being no showing that the motion court failed to consider the factors specified in Domestic Relations Law § 236 (B) (6) and § 237 (a). In particular, we note that defendant was a successful businesswoman prior to this marriage of short duration who continued to pay her own personal expenses after the marriage and appears to have continued good earning potential; that plaintiff is paying all of the expenses of the house in France, which appears to be the only marital asset of any significant value; and that plaintiff is maintaining all presently existing policies of life and medical insurance and paying all of defendant's unreimbursed medical, drug and dental expenses.
