DECISION ORDER

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

We decline to disturb the pendente lite awards in this case. In light of the fact that the husband was ordered to pay all of the carrying charges on the marital residence as well as other expenses, the court providently exercised its discretion in reducing the amount of temporary maintenance and child support. Moreover, the proper remedy for perceived inequities in a temporary award is to proceed to a speedy trial, where the financial circumstances of the parties can be fully explored (see, Eckstein v. Eckstein, 251 A.D.2d 537; Appold v. Savaglio, 249 A.D.2d 347; Horowitz v. Horowitz, 237 A.D.2d 490).

RITTER, J.P., JOY, GOLDSTEIN and H. MILLER, JJ., concur.
