Plaintiff appeals from a judgment of the Small Claims Part of the Civil Court of the City of
New York, New York County (Jeffrey K. Oing, J.), entered on or about July 10, 2007, after trial,
in favor of defendant dismissing the action.
Per Curiam.
Judgment (Jeffrey K. Oing, J.), entered on or about July 10, 2007, affirmed, without costs.
The record and the ends of "substantial justice" (CCA 1804, 1807) support the dismissal after trial of this small claims action, and, indeed, plaintiff on appeal does not directly challenge the propriety of the court's substantive determination. To the extent that plaintiff's mid-trial statement that she would "try to get it together" and locate the police report of the alleged incident can be viewed as a proper request for an adjournment to allow her to produce the report, the court's denial of such relief was not an abuse of discretion.
THIS CONSTITUTES THE DECISION AND ORDER OF THE COURT.
