ZAKKIYYA CARTER PLAINTIFF APPELLANT v. ALICIA FLOOD SHALONNA WATTS DEFENDANTS RESPONDENTS ET AL DEFENDANTS (2025)

Supreme Court, Appellate Division, Fourth Department, New York.

ZAKKIYYA CARTER, PLAINTIFF-APPELLANT, v. ALICIA FLOOD, SHALONNA WATTS, DEFENDANTS-RESPONDENTS, ET AL., DEFENDANTS.

789 Decided: November 21, 2025

PRESENT: CURRAN, J.P., BANNISTER, OGDEN, DELCONTE, AND HANNAH, JJ.

ZAKKIYYA CARTER, PLAINTIFF-APPELLANT PRO SE.

MEMORANDUM AND ORDER

It is hereby ORDERED that said appeal is unanimously dismissed without costs.

Memorandum: Plaintiff appeals pro se from an order that denied her damages following an inquest. The record on appeal, however, does not contain sufficient information to determine whether damages were properly denied following the inquest inasmuch as the transcript of the inquest and any exhibits entered during the inquest were not included as part of the record. The appeal must be dismissed based on plaintiff's failure to provide an adequate record to permit meaningful appellate review (see Walker v County of Monroe, 216 AD3d 1429, 1429 [4th Dept 2023]). Plaintiff, “as the appellant, ․ must suffer the consequences of submitting an incomplete record” (Curto v Zittel's Dairy Farm, 106 AD3d 1482, 1484 [4th Dept 2013] [internal quotation marks omitted]).
