In the Matter of JOEL COOPER, Respondent, v. SHERYL C. WOLKOWITZ, Appellant.

Ordered that the order is affirmed insofar as appealed from, without costs or disbursements.

We find that the Family Court, Nassau County properly exercised its discretion in declining to enforce the provisions of orders made by the Family Court, Suffolk County which conditioned any future applications for visitation by the petitioner on his obtaining psychological evaluation and counseling (see, Matter of Adam H., 195 A.D.2d 1074; Jones v Jones, 185 A.D.2d 228; Nacson v Nacson, 166 A.D.2d 510; Schneider v Schneider, 127 A.D.2d 491, affd sub nom. Paul B.S. v Pamela J.S., 70 N.Y.2d 739). We also find that the Family Court, Nassau County properly exercised its discretion to relieve the petitioner of a $5,000 bond requirement (see, Ex Parte Rich, 254 App. Div. 6, 9). Finally, the Family Court, Nassau County properly exercised its discretion in declining to impose sanctions or award attorney's fees at this stage of the proceedings and in ordering a hearing on the issue of changed circumstances. Thompson, J.P., Santucci, Joy and Friedmann, JJ., concur.
