    Surrogate's Court Procedure Act (SCP) CHAPTER 59-A, ARTICLE 6

    § 601. Definition of decree and order; how order enforced

    The determination of the rights of the parties to a special proceeding
    in the court is a decree.

    A direction of the court made or entered in writing and not included
    in a decree is an order.

    A decree or order has the same effect and may be enforced in like
    manner as a similar judgment, decree or order made by the supreme court
    in an action.
