08 Civ. 4258 (RJH) (S.D.N.Y. Jul. 10, 2008)

Opinion

08 Civ. 4258 (RJH).

July 10, 2008


MEMORANDUM OPINION AND ORDER


Plaintiffs petition the Court pursuant to Section 9 of the Federal Arbitration Act ("FAA"), 9 U.S.C. § 9, to confirm an arbitration award issued March 25, 2008. The complaint was filed on May 5, 2008, and served upon Defendant shortly thereafter. To date, Defendant has not filed an answer or opposition to Plaintiffs' petition.

"[T]he confirmation of an arbitration award is a summary proceeding that merely makes what is already a final arbitration award a judgment of the court." Florasynth, Inc. v. Pickholz, 750 F.2d 171, 176 (2d Cir. 1984). Under § 9 of the FAA, upon timely application by any party, a court must grant an order to confirm an arbitration award unless the award is vacated, modified, or corrected as prescribed in §§ 10 and 11 of the FAA. See Marsillo v. Geniton, No. 03 Civ. 2117 (TPG), 2004 WL 1207925, at *4 (S.D.N.Y. June 1, 2004). Plaintiffs' petition to confirm the arbitration award is hereby GRANTED.

SO ORDERED.
