Order unanimously affirmed without costs. Memorandum: Supreme Court did not abuse its discretion by signing an order submitted by defendant more than 60 days after the court rendered its decision (see, 22 NYCRR 202.48). Whether to accept a late order rests within the sound discretion of the court and defendant provided an adequate excuse for the delay (see, Krueger v Wilde, 204 A.D.2d 990; Barnett v. Star Mech. Corp., 171 A.D.2d 142, 146; cf., Tuller v. Tuller, 162 A.D.2d 801, 801-802).
