138 A.D. 147 | N.Y. App. Div. | 1910
It is not stated in the moving papers whether the appeal is from the order confirming the report of the arbitrators, or from the judgment entered thereon. By the Code of Civil Procedure it does not appear that an appeal from an order confirming the report of the arbitrators can be taken. By section 2381 of the Code, an appeal - may be taken from an order vacating, an award, .or from a judgment entered upon an award, as from an order or judgment in an action, and the proceedings upon such an appeal are governed by the provisions of chapter 12 of the Code, so far as they are applicable. By section 1353 of the Code it is provided that an appeal to the Appellate Division from a final judgment must be heard upon a certified copy of the notice of appeal, the judgment roll and the case and exceptions, if any, filed, as prescribed by law and the General Buies of Practice. It would seem to contemplate, therefore, that on an appeal from a judgment entered upon an award of arbitrators, if the appellant desires' to raise any question as to the propriety of the award, he must do so by an appeal from the judgment which must contain a case showing- the proceedings before the arbitrators. It would also appear that section 1301 of the Code is applicable; so that if on such an appeal the appellant desires to review the order' confirming the award, that must be specified in the notice of appeal; as where an award is confirmed by the court and an appeal taken from the judgment entered thereon, if the appellant desires to review an interlocutory order of the court, he must specify that order in the notice of appeal; but the facts upon which the arbitrators decided can only be reviewed upon a case and exceptions.
