Jon A. GIKA, appellant,v.MANCHESTER REALTY ASSOCIATES, respondent, et al., defendant.
Weinstein, Kaplan & Cohen, P.C., Garden City, N.Y. (Robert N. Cohen of counsel), for appellant.*642 Smith & Laquercia, LLP, New York, N.Y. (Lana S. Kaganovsky of counsel), for respondent.
In an action to recover damages for personal injuries, the plaintiff appeals from an order of the Supreme Court, Queens County (Satterfield, J.), dated September 30, 2010, which granted the motion of the defendant Manchester Realty Associates for summary judgment dismissing the complaint insofar as asserted against it.
ORDERED that the order is affirmed, with costs.
The defendant Manchester Realty Associates (hereinafter Manchester) established, prima facie, its entitlement to judgment as a matter of law dismissing the complaint insofar as asserted against it. In opposition, the plaintiff failed to raise a triable issue of fact.
Accordingly, the Supreme Court properly granted Manchester's motion for summary judgment dismissing the complaint insofar as asserted against it ( see generally Alvarez v. Prospect Hosp., 68 N.Y.2d 320, 324, 508 N.Y.S.2d 923, 501 N.E.2d 572).
RIVERA, J.P., COVELLO, FLORIO and LOTT, JJ., concur.
