DECISION ORDER

ORDERED that the order is affirmed insofar as appealed from, with costs.

The court providently exercised its discretion in awarding pendente lite maintenance, child support, and counsel fees (see, Domestic Relations Law ยง 236[B][6]; Piali v. Piali, 247 A.D.2d 455, 456; Lloyd v. McGrath, 246 A.D.2d 630). Moreover, the court correctly imputed income to the parties (see, Mellen v. Mellen, 260 A.D.2d 609; Brown v. Brown, 239 A.D.2d 535; Matter of Prill v. Mandell, 237 A.D.2d 445, 446; Matter of Mobley-Jennings v. Dare, 226 A.D.2d 730). The proper remedy for any perceived inequities in such an award is a speedy trial, where the financial circumstances of the parties can be explored on a full record (see, Piali v. Piali, supra; Lloyd v. McGrath, supra).
