Opinion
June 5, 2000.
In an action to recover damages for personal injuries, the plaintiff appeals from a judgment of the Supreme Court, Nassau County (Galasso, J.), dated May 26, 1999, which, upon a jury verdict in favor of the defendants and against him, dismissed the complaint.
Before: Sullivan, J. P., McGinity, H. Miller and Smith, JJ.
Ordered that the judgment is affirmed, with costs payable to the respondent Stephanie Hendrick.
The jury verdict that the defendant driver was negligent, but that her negligence was not a proximate cause of the accident, was not inconsistent ( see, Miglino v. Supermarkets Gen. Corp., 243 A.D.2d 451; Clements v. Lindsey, 237 A.D.2d 557; Gross v. Napoli, 216 A.D.2d 524, 525; Rubin v. Pecoraro, 141 A.D.2d 525, 526). In addition, the verdict was supported by a fair interpretation of the evidence ( see, Voiclis v. International Assn. of Machinist Aerospace Workers, 239 A.D.2d 339; Corcoran v. People's Ambulette Serv., 237 A.D.2d 402, 403; Nicastro v. Park, 113 A.D.2d 129, 134).
The plaintiff's remaining contentions are without merit.
