Troni v. Rubin

Appellate Term of the Supreme Court of New York, First Department
Jul 20, 2010
2010 N.Y. Slip Op. 51284 (N.Y. App. Term 2010)

Opinion

570283/10.

Decided July 20, 2010.

Plaintiff appeals from a judgment of the Small Claims Part of the Civil Court of the City of New York, New York County (Arlene P. Bluth, J.), entered on or about December 29, 2009, after trial, in favor of defendant dismissing the action.

PRESENT: McKeon, P.J., Shulman, Hunter, JJ.


Judgment (Arlene P. Bluth, J.), entered on or about December 29, 2009, affirmed, without costs.

Applying the narrow standard of review governing appeals in small claims actions (CCA 1807), and giving due deference to the trial court's express findings of fact and credibility ( see Williams v Roper, 269 AD2d 125, 126, lv denied 95 NY2d 898), we sustain the dismissal after trial of this small claims action. The evidence, fairly interpreted, supports the court's fact-laden determination that plaintiff did not timely notify defendant of the alleged apartment access problems underlying plaintiff's claim or afford defendant an opportunity to rectify any such problems. The record discloses no evidentiary errors, and clearly none warranting reversal of the small claims judgment ( see Ellis v Collegetown Plaza, LLC, 301 AD2d 758, 759).

THIS CONSTITUTES THE DECISION AND ORDER OF THE COURT.
