In a matrimonial action in which the parties were divorced by a judgment dated January 20, 1999, the plaintiff former husband appeals, as limited by his brief, from so much of an order of the Supreme Court, Queens County (Gartenstein, J.H.O.), dated April 12, 2000, as denied that branch of his motion which was for a downward modification of his child support obligation.

Dikman Dikman, Lake Success, N.Y. (David S. Dikman of counsel) for appellant.

Goldfeder Abraham, LLP, Bayside, N.Y. (Adrienne Abraham of counsel), for respondent.

Before: SONDRA MILLER, J.P., WILLIAM D. FRIEDMANN, SANDRA J. FEUERSTEIN, ROBERT W. SCHMIDT, JJ.


DECISION ORDER

ORDERED that the order is affirmed insofar as appealed from, with costs.

The Supreme Court correctly denied that branch of the plaintiff's motion which was for a downward modification of his child support obligation, as he failed to meet his burden of establishing a substantial change in circumstances (see, Matter of Prisco v. Buxbaum, 275 A.D.2d 461; Matter of Roth v. Bowman, 237 A.D.2d 447; Klapper v. Klapper, 204 A.D.2d 518, 519).
