Jackson v. Timmons

Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of New York, Second Department
Jan 15, 1968
29 A.D.2d 664 (N.Y. App. Div. 1968)

Opinion

January 15, 1968


Order of the Supreme Court, Westchester County, dated June 27, 1967, reversed, with $10 costs and disbursements, and plaintiff's motion for summary judgment denied. In our opinion, plaintiff's supporting papers are not sufficient to meet the evidentiary requirements of CPLR 3212 (subd. [b]). No affidavit by her or any eyewitness was submitted. The statements in the complaint which was verified by her are merely conclusory and do not contain facts upon which it may be held that there is no factual issue of negligence or freedom from contributory negligence ( Gale v. City of New York, 18 A.D.2d 12). The mere fact that defendants' vehicles were on the wrong side of the road does not constitute negligence as a matter of law ( Gale v. City of New York, supra, p. 13). Beldock, P.J., Brennan, Hopkins, Munder and Martuscello, JJ., concur.
