DECISION ORDER
ORDERED that the appeal from the order entered March 29, 1999, is dismissed, without costs or disbursements, as no appeal lies from so much of an order as denies resettlement of the decretal paragraphs of a judgment; and it is further,
ORDERED that the appeal from the judgment entered May 5, 1999, is dismissed, without costs or disbursements, as the plaintiff is not aggrieved thereby (see, CPLR 5511); and it is further,
ORDERED that the cross appeals from the order entered March 29, 1999, and the money judgment entered May 5, 1999, are dismissed for failure to perfect the same (see, 22 NYCRR 670.10[d]); and it is further,
ORDERED that the judgment dated September 29, 1998, is modified, as a matter of discretion, by deleting from the seventeenth decretal paragraph thereof the sum of $2,000,000 and substituting therefor the sum of $2,178,865; as so modified, the judgment is affirmed insofar as appealed and cross appealed from, without costs or disbursements; and it is further,
ORDERED that the order entered March 29, 1999 is affirmed insofar as reviewed, without costs or disbursements.
Contrary to the defendant's argument, the trial court had the authority to determine whether assets used to create an offshore trust in the Cook Islands two years before the commencement of the divorce action were subject to equitable distribution (see,Domestic Relations Law § 236[B][5]; Scheinkman, New York Law of Domestic Relations § 14.15 at 434; Weiss v. Weiss, 186 A.D.2d 247 ;Sarrica v. Sarrica, 41 A.D.2d 613 ). Moreover, the court properly awarded the plaintiff one-half of the value of that trust as of December 1994. However, due to a computation error, the amount awarded to the plaintiff should be increased by the sum of $178,865.
The trial court providently exercised its discretion in declining to award an additional attorney's fee to the plaintiff under the circumstances of this case (see, Domestic Relations Law § 237).
The parties' remaining contentions are without merit.
