DECISION & ORDER ON MOTION

2013-1813 W C
Almstead Tree & Shrub Care Co., Respondent, v
Myriam Hodgeman, Appellant.

Motion by appellant for a stay pending the determination of appeals from a judgment of the City Court of New Rochelle, Westchester County, entered May 22, 2013, and from a letter of the same court dated July 24, 2013.

Upon the papers filed in support of the motion and no papers having been filed in opposition thereto, it is

ORDERED, on the court's own motion, that the appeal from the judgment is dismissed, as no appeal lies from a judgment entered pursuant to an award by an arbitrator in a small claims action (see Kadziela v Lucchese, 2008 NY Slip 70437[U] [App Term, 2d & 11th Jud Dists 2008]); and it is further,

ORDERED, on the court's own motion, that the appeal from the letter is dismissed on the ground that no appeal lies from a letter (see UJCA 1702); and it is further,

ORDERED that appellant's motion is denied as academic.
