Opinion of the Court
Appeal and
It is hereby ordered that the order so appealed from be and the same hereby is unanimously affirmed without costs.
Memorandum: Supreme Court properly denied defendant’s motion to amend or correct the Qualified Domestic Relations Order entered March 15, 2001. Where, as here, a substantial right of a party is affected, the court is not authorized pursuant to CPLR 5019 (a) to amend a judgment or order (see Gasteiger v Gasteiger, 288 AD2d 881; see also Matter of Empire State Pipeline v Town of Arcadia Assessor, 270 AD2d 830, 831; Vollbrecht v Vollbrecht, 246 AD2d 793, 794-795). In view of the financial resources of plaintiff, the court did not abuse its discretion in denying that part of her cross motion for attorney’s fees (see Matter of Venezia v Venezia, 144 AD2d 948, 949). Present — Hayes, J.P., Hurlbutt, Kehoe, Burns and Lawton, JJ.
