225 A.D.2d 606 (N.Y. App. Div. 1996)

639 N.Y.S.2d 732

Opinion

March 11, 1996

Appeal from the Supreme Court, Kings County (Jackson, J.).

Ordered that the order is affirmed insofar as appealed from, with costs.

The defendants have failed to meet their burden of establishing the right to a protective order with regard to the minutes and findings of the New York City Transit Authority arbitration hearing and a copy of the accident report, both of which concern the subject accident (see, Spectrum Sys. Intl. Corp. v Chemical Bank, 78 N.Y.2d 371, 377; Crazytown Furniture v Brooklyn Union Gas Co., 145 A.D.2d 402).

We have reviewed the defendants' remaining contention and find it to be without merit. Rosenblatt, J.P., Sullivan, Copertino and Goldstein, JJ., concur.
