Description

Order of the Supeme Court, New York County (Gomez, J.), entered May 6, 1981, directing: 1 -- that the case be stricken from the Trial Calendar; 2 -- that plaintiff pay to defendant the sum of $6,000 as and for accounting fees; and 3 -- directing plaintiff to comply with the notice for discovery and inspection hitherto served upon him, modified, on the law, the facts and in the exercise of discretion, to the extent of deleting the provision for accounting fees and reserving the determination of that issue for the trial court, and otherwise affirmed, without costs. In this matrimonial action plaintiff served and filed a statement of readiness and note of issue despite the fact that pretrial discovery was far from complete. Each of the parties then had outstanding a notice to take the deposition of the other. Additionally, plaintiffs demand for written interrogatories had not yet been complied with and defendant was in the throes of a discovery of the books and records of plaintiffs wholly owned corporations. In connection with the discovery and inspection defendant had retained an accountant and had paid him the sum of $1,000. By the motion now on appeal defendant sought to strike the statement of readiness and note of issue, to compel plaintiff to comply with the notice of discovery and inspection theretofore served upon him and to obtain accountants fees in the sum of $6,000, $1,000 to recoup the sum already paid to the accountant, and $5,000 for anticipated services. Special Term granted all of the relief sought by defendant. We take issue only with the allowance of accountants fees. We would reserve that for the trial court which will be in a far better position to ascertain the services actually rendered which can better be determined at that time; the accountants background and experience, and the usual charges made by him to clients as well as to the other elements which go into the fixation of accountants fees. Concur -- Murphy, P.J., Kupferman, Sandler, Lupiano and Bloom, JJ.
