SUPREME COURT, APPELLATE TERM, FIRST DEPARTMENT

PRESENT: Hagler, P.J., Tisch, James, JJ.

570236/25

Emily S. Robin, Plaintiff-Appellant,

against

NYC Excellent Improvements Inc., Defendant-Respondent.

Plaintiff appeals from a judgment of the Small Claims Part of the Civil Court of the City of New York, New York County (Anna R. Lewis, J.), entered May 1, 2024, after trial, in favor of defendant dismissing the action.

Per Curiam.

Judgment (Anna R. Lewis, J.), entered May 1, 2024, affirmed, without costs.

The record establishes that the trial court applied the appropriate rules and principles of substantive law and accomplished substantial justice (see CCA 1804, 1807) in dismissing this small claims action arising from allegedly defective renovation performed by defendant. A fair interpretation of the evidence supports the trial court's finding that plaintiff failed to prove that the work performed by defendant was defective and any competent evidence of damages.

All concur.

THIS CONSTITUTES THE DECISION AND ORDER OF THE COURT.

Clerk of the Court
