ESTHER YORK, Appellant, v. JOSEPH YORK, Respondent.

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

The court did not improvidently exercise its discretion in denying the appellants motion for an award of additional interim counsel and accounting fees as she failed to submit the proper documentation needed for the award of such fees ( see, Corrao v. Corrao, 209 A.D.2d 573; Dunne v. Dunne, 172 A.D.2d 482; Coppola v. Coppola, 129 A.D.2d 760).

Further, absent a legal disqualification under Judiciary Law § 14, a Trial Judge is the sole arbiter on the issue of recusal. Since the appellant failed to demonstrate that any determinations in the case were the result of bias, the court did not improvidently exercise its discretion in failing to recuse itself from the case ( see, Matter of Malinda v., 221 A.D.2d 549).

The appellants remaining contentions are without merit.

Bracken, J.P., OBrien, Copertino and Altman, JJ., concur.
