Gustavo Aguirre, Appellant, —

against

He Gin Lee Architect, PC, Respondent.


Appeal from a judgment of the Civil Court of the City of New York, Queens County (Anna Culley, J.), entered March 31, 2005. The judgment, after a nonjury trial, dismissed the action.


Judgment affirmed without costs.

In this action seeking to recover architectural fees paid to the defendant, upon a review of the record on appeal, it is our opinion that the court's findings of fact and conclusions of law were reached upon a fair interpretation of the evidence (see Claridge Gardens v Menotti, 160 AD2d 544 [1990]). Furthermore, "a trial court's resolution
of questions of credibility is particularly within its domain and should not be disturbed on appeal if supported by the record" (Vizzari v State of New York, 184 AD2d 564, 564 [1992]; Kincade v Kincade, 178 AD2d 510, 511 [1991]).

Pesce, P.J., Weston Patterson and Belen, JJ., concur.
