DECISION ORDER

ORDERED that the order is affirmed, with costs.

On the record presented, the Supreme Court's determination and apportionment of the Law Guardian's fee was not improper (see,Matter of Bungay v. Morin, 256 A.D.2d 462 ; Petek v. Petek, 239 A.D.2d 327 ; Richards v. Richards, 189 A.D.2d 1025 ; Matter of Mouscardy v. Mouscardy, 63 A.D.2d 973 ).

The plaintiff's remaining contentions are without merit.

RITTER, J.P., ALTMAN, KRAUSMAN, and McGINITY, JJ., concur.
