Atiles v. City of New York

Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of New York, Second Department
Jan 25, 2001
279 A.D.2d 543 (N.Y. App. Div. 2001)

Opinion

January 25, 2001.

In an action to recover damages for personal injuries, etc., the defendant Brooklyn Union Gas Company appeals, as limited by its brief, from so much of an order of the Supreme Court, Kings County (Bruno, J.), dated October 12, 1999, as denied its motion for summary judgment dismissing the complaint and all cross claims insofar as asserted against it.

Cullen and Dykman, Brooklyn, N.Y. (John J. Burbridge of counsel), for appellant.

Nigro, D'Anna Utrecht, P.C. (Abraham Hecht, Forest Hills, N Y [Warren S. Hecht] of counsel), for plaintiffs-respondents.

Michael D. Hess, Corporation Counsel, New York, N.Y. (Stephen J. McGrath and Kristin M. Helmers of counsel), for defendant-respondent City of New York.

Before: GABRIEL M. KRAUSMAN, J.P., SONDRA MILLER, DANIEL F. LUCIANO, SANDRA J. FEUERSTEIN, JJ.


DECISION ORDER

ORDERED that the order is affirmed insofar as appealed from, with one bill of costs.

The Supreme Court properly denied the appellant's motion for summary judgment as there are questions of fact as to whether it negligently performed repairs at the location of the accident (see, Quinn v. City of New York, 271 A.D.2d 515; cf., Verdes v. Brooklyn Union Gas Co., 253 A.D.2d 552).
