Glaser Weil Fink Howard Avchen & Shapiro LLP v. Sarah Lazow

Case No. 22STCP03939

Petition to Confirm Arbitration Award

            NOTICE:  Petitioner’s counsel shall provide the amount of prejudgment interest, as well as the total amount of the judgment, at the hearing. 

            Petitioner seeks to confirm an arbitration award against Respondent Sarah Lazow in the amount of $177,024.97.  A party may seek a court judgment confirming an arbitration award by filing and serving a petition at least 10 days, but no more than four years after the arbitrator serves the arbitration award.  (Code Civ. Proc., §§ 1288, 1288.4.)  The Court must confirm the award unless an opposing party demonstrates good cause to correct or vacate the arbitration award, or to dismiss the proceedings.  (Code Civ. Proc., § 1286.)  If the Court confirms the award, the Court enters an enforceable judgment with the same force and effect as a judgment in a civil action.  (Code Civ. Proc., § 1287.4.)  Petitioner has satisfied the procedural requirements, and Respondent has not opposed the motion.  Therefore, the Court orders as follows:

            1.         The Court grants the petition to confirm the arbitration award.

            2.         Petitioner shall provide notice and file proof of such with the Court.
