IN THE MATTER OF HELEN C. (ANONYMOUS). and PATRICIA F. (ANONYMOUS), appellant; CHRISTOPHER R. (ANONYMOUS), respondent.

DECISION ORDER

ORDERED that the order is affirmed, without costs or disbursements.

The Supreme Court awarded the guardian reasonable compensation within the meaning of Mental Hygiene Law § 81.28(a) ( see generally Matter of Lindsay, 276 A.D.2d 451; Matter of Arnold O., 256 A.D.2d 764).

The Supreme Court providently exercised its discretion in its award of legal fees for the appellant's attorney ( see Ricciuti v. Lombardi, 256 A.D.2d 892). Many of the legal services performed, inter alia, were of the type customarily performed by a guardian ( see Matter of Arnold O., supra).

The appellant's remaining contentions are without merit.

RITTER, J.P., GOLDSTEIN, TOWNES and COZIER, JJ., concur.
