Barbara Solomon, Respondent, v. Elliott Solomon, Appellant.

Judgment modified, on the facts, by reducing the award for plaintiff’s counsel fees and disbursements to $5,000 and the installments to $333.33 each. As so modified, judgment affirmed insofar as appealed from, without costs. In our opinion, the award for counsel fees and disbursements was excessive to the extent indicated herein. Gulotta, P. J., Hopkins, Shapiro, Christ and Munder, JJ., concur.
