Defendant appeals from a judgment of the Small Claims Part of the Civil Court of the City of
New York, New York County (Peter H. Moulton, J.), entered May 18, 2009, after trial, awarding
plaintiff damages in the principal sum of $4,533.
Per Curiam.
Judgment (Peter H. Moulton, J.), entered May 18, 2009, affirmed, without costs.
Applying the narrow standard of review governing appeals in small claims actions (see CCA 1807) and giving due deference to the trial court's findings of fact and credibility determinations (see Williams v Roper, 269 AD2d 125, 126 [2000], lv dismissed 95 NY2d 898 [2000]), we sustain the court's finding that plaintiff was entitled to fees representing the reasonable value of psychological services performed by plaintiff at defendant's behest.
THIS CONSTITUTES THE DECISION AND ORDER OF THE COURT.
