In an action to recover damages for personal injuries, the third-party defendant appeals from so much of an order of the Supreme Court, Orange County (Horowitz, J.), dated June 8, 2004, as denied its motion for summary judgment dismissing the third-party complaint.
Goldberg Segalla, LLP, White Plains, N.Y. (Joel R. Appelbaum and William G. Kelly of counsel), for third-party defendant-appellant.
Baxter Smith, P.C., Jericho, N.Y. (Sim R. Shapiro of counsel), for defendant third-party plaintiff-respondent.
Before: Prudenti, P.J., Florio, Crane and Lifson, JJ., concur.
Ordered that the order is affirmed insofar as appealed from, with costs.
There are triable issues of fact which preclude summary judgment dismissing the third-party complaint for indemnification and contribution ( see Murphy v. WFP 245 Park Co., L.P., 8 AD3d 161, 162; Bornschein v. Shuman, 7 AD3d 476, 479; cf. O'Donoghue v. New York City School Constr. Auth., 1 AD3d 333, 336). Thus, the third-party defendant's motion was properly denied.
