Opinion
August 7, 2000.
In an action to recover damages for personal injuries, etc., the plaintiffs appeal from an order of the Supreme Court, Richmond County (Mastro, J.), dated September 9, 1999, which granted the defendants' motion for summary judgment dismissing the complaint.
Ordered that the order is affirmed, with costs.
After the defendants made a prima facie showing of their entitlement to summary judgment, it was incumbent upon the plaintiffs to come forward with evidence showing that the defendants had either created the allegedly dangerous condition or had actual or constructive notice thereof ( see, Goodwin v. Knolls at Stony Brook Homeowners Assn., 251 A.D.2d 451). However, in their opposition to the motion, the plaintiffs merely speculated that the defendants created the icy condition by negligently shoveling the driveway where the injured plaintiff fell. Their theory was not supported by any evidentiary proof in admissible form and, therefore, the motion was properly granted ( see, Gustavsson v. County of Westchester, 264 A.D.2d 408; Gittler v. K.G.H. Realty Corp., 258 A.D.2d 504; Davis v. City of New York, 255 A.D.2d 356).
