Doris Thurber, Appellant, v Kenneth Thurber, Respondent.
[721 NYS2d 288]

—In an action to recover damages for

p. 411
unjust enrichment, the plaintiff appeals from a judgment of the Supreme Court, Suffolk County (Seidell, J.), dated November 12, 1999, which, after a nonjury trial, dismissed the complaint.

Ordered that the judgment is affirmed, with costs.

The Supreme Court properly dismissed the complaint. The appellant failed to establish by a preponderance of the evidence that the respondent’s retention of certain marital property constituted unjust enrichment (see, Sharp v Kosmalski, 40 NY2d 119 ).

The appellant’s remaining contentions are without merit (see, Matter of Gould v Board of Educ., 81 NY2d 446 ; Marine Midland Bank-Southern v Thurlow, 53 NY2d 381 ; Stage Club Corp. v West Realty Co., 212 AD2d 458 ; Katz v American Tech. Indus., 96 AD2d 932 ). Friedmann, J. P., Florio, Luciano and Feuerstein, JJ., concur.
