DECISION ORDER
ORDERED that the order is affirmed, with costs.
Proceedings pursuant to Workers' Compensation Law ยง 29(5) are directed to the discretion of the court (see Hargrove v. Becom Real, 287 A.D.2d 598; Matter of Gilson v. National Union Fire Ins. Co., 246 A.D.2d 897; Severino v. Liberty Mut. Ins. Co., 238 A.D.2d 837, 838). The Supreme Court providently exercised its discretion in approving the petitioner's settlement with a third party nunc pro tunc (see DeRosa v. Petrylak, 290 A.D.2d 596).
ALTMAN, J.P., GOLDSTEIN, LUCIANO and H. MILLER, JJ., concur.
