Opinion
July 15, 1985
Appeal from the White Plains City Court, Westchester County.
George Froyton, appellant pro se. Gary M. Cuba for respondent.
MEMORANDUM.
Order unanimously reversed without costs, motion to vacate granted, and prior judgment in favor of defendant dismissing the action reinstated.
After a small claims judgment has been entered upon an arbitrator's award, the award and judgment cannot be set aside on the ground that the award was affected by an error of law (see, Trager v Abalene Blouse Sportswear Corp., 1 Misc.2d 952; Kornbluth v Flatbush Theatre, 149 Misc. 733; Schluter v Terney, 142 Misc. 21; cf., CPLR 7511 [b]; Matter of Sprinzen [Nomberg], 46 N.Y.2d 623, 629; Brownstein v County of Westchester, Dept. of Parks, Recreation Conservation, 51 A.D.2d 792; Scott v Dale Carpet Cleaning, 120 Misc.2d 118; see generally, 22 Carmody-Wait 2d, N Y Prac § 141:1).
DiPAOLA, P.J., SLIFKIN and WIDLITZ, JJ., concur.
