Opinion

March 2, 1998

Appeal from the Court of Claims (Mega, J.).

Ordered that the judgment is affirmed, with costs.

We agree with the Court of Claims that the defect in the sidewalk where the accident occurred was too trivial to be actionable against the respondent (see, Trincere v. County of Suffolk, 90 N.Y.2d 976; Guerrieri v. Summa, 193 A.D.2d 647; Tisei v. Angelo, 238 A.D.2d 332).

Sullivan, J. P., Friedmann, Florio and Luciano, JJ., concur.
