Opinion
April 19, 1996
Appeal from the Supreme Court, Jefferson County, Gilbert, J.
Present — Green, J.P., Wesley, Doerr and Boehm, JJ.
Order unanimously affirmed without costs. Memorandum: The determination of reasonable counsel fees is a matter that lies within the sound discretion of the trial court ( see, Matter of Nicastro, 186 A.D.2d 805; Matter of Rahmey v. Blum, 95 A.D.2d 294, 299). Supreme Court did not abuse its discretion in setting the hourly rate of compensation for plaintiffs' counsel.
