Opinion
570824/09.
Decided on March 8, 2010.
Defendants appeal from a judgment of the Small Claims Part of the Civil Court of the City of New York, Bronx County (Fernando Tapia, J.), entered on or about August 11, 2009, after trial, in favor of plaintiff and awarding her damages in the principal sum of $3,046, and dismissing defendants' counterclaims.
Judgment (Fernando Tapia, J.), entered on or about August 11, 2009, affirmed, without costs.
PRESENT: McKeon, P.J., Shulman, Hunter, JJ.
The record establishes that the trial court applied the appropriate rules and principles of substantive law and accomplished "substantial justice" in awarding judgment in plaintiff's favor and dismissing defendants' counterclaims (CCA 1804, 1807; see Williams v Roper, 269 AD2d 125, lv dismissed 95 NY2d 898). The evidence, fairly interpreted, supports the trial court's finding that plaintiff was entitled to a refund of her security deposit pursuant to the terms of the parties' written agreement.
THIS CONSTITUTES THE DECISION AND ORDER OF THE COURT.
