Submitted—November 28, 2011

DECISION & ORDER

In a proceeding pursuant to CPLR article 75 to vacate an arbitration award dated April 14, 2010, the petitioner appeals from a judgment of the Supreme Court, Queens County (Rios, J.), entered August 9, 2010, which, upon an order of the same court dated July 16, 2010, denying the petition and confirming the award, is against it and in favor of Deyanira Baldera in the amount of the arbitration award.

ORDERED that the judgment is affirmed, with costs.

Contrary to the petitioner's contentions, the Supreme Court properly denied its petition to vacate an arbitration award, and confirmed the award (see generally CPLR 7511[b][1][iv]; Matter of Channel Textile Co. v Items, Inc. of Cal., 156 A.D.2d 302).

SKELOS, J.P., LEVENTHAL, BELEN and ROMAN, JJ., concur.
