Priscilla O. Sintim-Danso, Plaintiff-Respondent, v. Prestige Travel and Tour, Defendant-Appellant, and Nana Somuah, Eddy Somuah and Kwabena Nyanteh, Defendants. (2026)

Per Curiam.

Appeal from judgment (Anna R. Lewis, J.), entered on or about July 24, 2025, dismissed, without costs, as taken from a nonappealable paper.

Plaintiff brought this small claims action to recover damages allegedly sustained as the result of defendant travel agent's failure to book plane tickets or issue a refund of her money. The parties consented to arbitration and signed a consent form, which states that the arbitration award is final and that no appeal is permitted (see 22 NYCRR § 208.41 [n] [2]). A judgment was entered pursuant to the award by the small claims arbitrator in favor of plaintiff in the principal sum of $3,750, and defendant now appeals.

In view of the parties' waiver of the right of appeal, no appeal may be taken from the judgment of the Civil Court (see Baker v Lizzardo, 30 Misc 3d 138[A], 2011 NY Slip Op 50223[U] [App Term, 2d, 11th and 13th Jud Dists 2011]). Accordingly, the appeal is dismissed.

THIS CONSTITUTES THE DECISION AND ORDER OF THE COURT.
