Opinion

Argued May 30, 2000.

July 31, 2000.

In an action to recover damages for personal injuries, the defendant appeals from a judgment of the Supreme Court, Westchester County (Colabella, J.), entered May 21, 1999, which, upon a jury verdict, is in favor of the plaintiff and against it in the principal sum of $115,000 ($90,000 for compensatory damages and $25,000 for punitive damages).

Eustace Marquez, White Plains, N.Y. (Carl F. Levine of counsel), for appellant.

William A. Gerard, Palisades, N.Y., for respondent.

Before: DAVID S. RITTER, J.P., FRED T. SANTUCCI, ANITA R. FLORIO, HOWARD MILLER, JJ.


DECISION ORDER

ORDERED that the judgment is affirmed, with costs.

The award of damages did not deviate materially from what would be reasonable compensation (see, CPLR 5502 [c]; Senko v. Fonda, 53 A.D.2d 638).

The defendant's remaining contention is without merit.
