OPINION OF THE COURT
Ross, J.
For those attorneys engaged in the practice of matrimonial law, and for those married couples who are contemplating terminating their relationship, or for those who have already commenced or completed this process, the date of July 19, 1980, will hold increased significance. On that date the new matrimonial law, commonly referred to as the “Equitable Distribution Law” (L 1980, ch 281, as amdg Domestic Relations Law, § 236), was declared effective. Indeed, the parties to this action, the Liebeskinds, were affected by the change in law effective as of that date.
