October 26, 1999
Judgment, Supreme Court, Bronx County (Jerry Crispino, J.).
The jury verdict, finding, inter alia, that defendant had notice of the ice hazard on its premises upon which plaintiff slipped and fell, was supported by legally sufficient evidence, particularly, when the evidence is viewed, as it must be, in the light most favorable to the plaintiff, the prevailing party at trial (see,Alexander v. Eldred, 63 N.Y.2d 460, 464). Upon review of the record, we find, in addition, that the verdict was not against the weight of the evidence (see, Cohen v. Hallmark Cards, Inc., 45 N.Y.2d 493, 498-499).
