Opinion
May 10, 1999
Appeal from the Supreme Court, Nassau County (Winick, J.).
Ordered that the order is affirmed insofar as appealed from, with one bill of costs to the respondents appearing separately and filing separate briefs.
Contrary to the plaintiffs' contention, the Supreme Court properly found that the plaintiff Mark E. Oraa was a volunteer, and therefore not entitled to the protection of Labor Law §§ 200 Lab., 240 Lab.(1) and § 241 Lab.(6) ( see, Whelen v. Warwick Val. Civic Social Club, 47 N.Y.2d 970; Howerter v. Dugan, 232 A.D.2d 524; Yearke v. Zarcone, 57 A.D.2d 457).
The appellants' remaining contentions are without merit.
Bracken, J. P., Sullivan, Friedmann and Florio, JJ., concur.
