Before: FRED T. SANTUCCI, J.P., MYRIAM J. ALTMAN, DANIEL F. LUCIANO, HOWARD MILLER, JJ.
DECISION ORDER
ORDERED that the order is affirmed, with costs.
The Supreme Court properly granted the defendant's motion for summary judgment dismissing the complaint. The defendant demonstrated his prima facie entitlement to judgment as a matter of law. In opposition, the plaintiffs failed to come forward with admissible evidence sufficient to raise a triable issue of fact (see, Lopez v. Senatore, 65 N.Y.2d 1017, 1019; Perez v. Velez, 253 A.D.2d 865; Medina v. Zalmen Reis Assocs., 239 A.D.2d 394; Marshall v. Albano, 182 A.D.2d 614).
SANTUCCI, J.P., ALTMAN, LUCIANO and H. MILLER, JJ., concur.
