Opinion

No. 2007-06252.

May 27, 2008.

In an action to recover damages for personal injuries, the plaintiff appeals from an order of the Supreme Court, Kings County (Baiter, J.), dated May 21, 2007, which granted the defendant's motion for summary judgment dismissing the complaint on the ground that she did not sustain a serious injury within the meaning of Insurance Law § 5102 (d).

Alan M. Greenberg, P.C., New York, N.Y. (Jeremy A. Hellman of counsel), for appellant.

Cheven, Keely Hatzis, New York, N.Y. (Mayu Miyashita of counsel), for respondent.

Before: Fisher, J.P., Florio, Angiolillo, Dickerson and Belen, JJ.


Ordered that the order is affirmed, with costs.

The defendant met his prima facie burden of showing that the plaintiff did not sustain a serious injury within the meaning of Insurance Law § 5102 (d) as a result of the subject accident ( see Toure v Avis Rent A Car Sys., 98 NY2d 345; Gaddy v Eyler, 79 NY2d 955, 956-957; Meyers v Bobower Yeshiua Bnei Zion, 20 AD3d 456; cf. Bozza v O'Neill, 43 AD3d 1094, 1096; De Filippo v White, 101 AD2d 801, 802-803). In opposition, the plaintiff failed to raise a triable issue of fact.
