Dressler v. Socony Mobil Oil Co., Inc.

Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of New York, First Department
Nov 19, 1964
22 A.D.2d 780 (N.Y. App. Div. 1964)

Opinion

November 19, 1964


Judgment entered April 22, 1964, dismissing the complaint at the close of plaintiffs' case, unanimously reversed, on the law, and a new trial directed, with $50 costs to abide the event. Defendants' use of the sidewalk was a special use for the ingress and egress of motor vehicles to and from the gasoline station. The evidence establishes questions of fact as to the existence of a dangerous sidewalk condition consequent on said special use. ( Mullins v. Siegel-Cooper Co., 183 N.Y. 129; Wylie v. City of New York, 286 App. Div. 720; Nickelsburg v. City of New York, 263 App. Div. 625; Joel v. Electrical Research Prods., 94 F.2d 588.)
