—Order, Supreme Court, New York County (David Saxe, J.), entered November 30, 1993, which, in a proceeding to prevent defendant from relocating out of State with the parties’ child, denied plaintiff’s motion pursuant to Domestic Relations Law § 237 (b) for an award of counsel fees, unanimously affirmed, with costs.
