Lai Yin Kwan v. Zhi Cheng Shen
Opinion of the Court
—In an action for a divorce and ancillary
Ordered that the judgment is affirmed insofar as appealed from, with costs.
The trial court properly distributed the marital assets pursuant to a written agreement between the parties which was neither unconscionable nor overreaching (see generally, Levine v Levine, 56 NY2d 42; Christian v Christian, 42 NY2d 63, 71; Frank v Frank, 260 AD2d 344; Greenfield v Greenfield, 147 AD2d 440, 442; Yuda v Yuda, 143 AD2d 657). The court’s determination rested largely on its assessment of the credibility of the witnesses presented during the trial, and the determination was supported by a fair interpretation of the evidence (see, Matter of Liccione v John H., 65 NY2d 826; Petek v Petek, 239 AD2d 327).
The defendant’s remaining contentions are without merit. Santucci, J. P., Thompson, Sullivan and Smith, JJ., concur.
