May 7, 2001.
In an action to recover damages for personal injuries, etc., the plaintiffs appeal from an order of the Supreme Court, Queens County (Berke, J.), dated May 9, 2000, which granted the respective motions of the defendants Jackie Robinson and Paul A. Blake for summary judgment dismissing the complaint insofar as asserted against them on the ground that neither plaintiff sustained a serious injury within the meaning of Insurance Law § 5102(d).
Mallilo Grossman, Flushing, N.Y. (Francesco Pomara, Jr., of counsel), for appellants.
Ryan, Perrone Hartlein, P.C., Mineola, N.Y. (William T. Ryan and Robin Mary Heaney of counsel), for respondent Jackie Robinson.
Shapiro, Beilly, Rosenberg, Aronowitz, Levy Fox, LLP, New York, N Y (Roy J. Karlin of counsel), for respondent Paul A. Blake.
Before: RITTER, J.P., KRAUSMAN, FLORIO and FEUERSTEIN, JJ.
ORDERED that the order is affirmed, with one bill of costs.
The Supreme Court properly granted the motions for summary judgment. The moving defendants submitted admissible evidence demonstrating that neither plaintiff sustained a serious injury within the meaning of Insurance Law § 5102(d). In opposition, the plaintiffs failed to raise a triable issue of fact (see, Lopez v. Senatore, 65 N.Y.2d 1017, 1019; Smith v. Askew, 264 A.D.2d 834; Kauderer v. Penta, 261 A.D.2d 365; Perez v. Velez, 253 A.D.2d 865; Medina v. Zalmen Reis Assocs., 239 A.D.2d 394; Marshall v. Albano, 182 A.D.2d 614).
