2006 New York Code - Appeals Generally.

 
    §  24.  Appeals  generally.   Either party may appeal from an order or
  judgment of the court of claims, or of a referee to hear  and  determine
  of  such  court,  to  the appellate division of the supreme court of the
  department in which the claims  relating  to  the  orders  or  judgments
  appealed,  arose. The appeal from a judgment may be taken upon questions
  of law or of fact, or both, or for an alleged excess or insufficiency of
  the judgment. Upon such appeal, the court may affirm, reverse or  modify
  the  judgment  granting  such  award and judgment as the court of claims
  should have granted, or dismiss the appeal or grant a new trial or remit
  for further proceedings. The provisions of the civil  practice  law  and
  rules  relating  to  appeals  in  the  supreme  court  apply,  so far as
  practicable, to appeals from orders or judgments of the court of  claims
  or from orders of its referee, except as modified in this article.
