LESNICK MAZARIN, Respondent, v. PETER CUTLER, Defendant, and SHARON CUTLER, Appellant.

Ordered that the order is affirmed, with costs.

The appellant's attorney, as her agent, engaged the plaintiff accounting firm to perform work in connection with the action for a divorce between the appellant and her husband, the defendant Peter Cutler.

The appellant failed within a reasonable time to raise an objection to the invoices and statements which the plaintiff indisputably sent her attorney ( see, 1 N.Y. Jur 2d, Accounts and Accounting, § 19). Under the circumstances, that knowledge is imputed to the appellant and she is bound by such knowledge even if the information was never actually communicated to her ( see, Center v. Hampton Affiliates, 66 N.Y.2d 782, 784; Smalls v. Reliable Auto Serv., 205 A.D.2d 523).

Mangano, P. J., Joy, Friedmann and Goldstein, JJ., concur.
