Opinion

November 17, 1997

Appeal from the Supreme Court, Queens County (Polizzi, J.).

Ordered that the order is affirmed insofar as appealed from, with costs.

Since the defendants did not exercise any supervisory control over the plaintiff, or direct the plaintiff's work, summary judgment dismissing the plaintiff's common-law cause of action pursuant to Labor Law § 200 was properly granted ( see, Comes v New York State Elec. Gas Corp., 82 N.Y.2d 876; Lombardi v Stout, 80 N.Y.2d 290).

Rosenblatt, J. P., O'Brien, Thompson, Friedmann and Goldstein, JJ., concur.
