Opinion
May 20, 1996
Appeal from the Supreme Court, Westchester County (Donovan, J.).
Ordered that the judgment is affirmed insofar as appealed from, with costs.
Contrary to the wife's contention, in light of her age, health, education, and actual enrollment in a course to obtain training and refresh her skills, the maintenance award cannot be said to be insufficient to allow her time to regain her self-sufficiency ( see, Pagano v. Pagano, 202 A.D.2d 652; Gross v. Gross, 160 A.D.2d 976; Schnee v. Schnee, 152 A.D.2d 665). Thus, the maintenance award was not an improvident exercise of the court's discretion ( see, Wilner v. Wilner, 192 A.D.2d 524; Loeb v. Loeb, 186 A.D.2d 174; Sperling v. Sperling, 165 A.D.2d 338).
We have examined the wife's remaining contentions and find them to be without merit. O'Brien, J.P., Santucci, Joy and Florio, JJ., concur.
