Ordered that, within 14 days from the date of this decision and order, the appellant is directed to file with this the clerk of this court a statement of whether "Time Preparation and Record Keeping” sheets were submitted to the Surrogate’s Court in connection with his application for an award of attorney’s fees which was determined by the order on appeal; and it is further,
Ordered that the appeal is held in abeyance in the interim. Bracken, J. P., Eiber, Miller and Ritter, concur.
