DECISION ORDER
ORDERED that the order is affirmed, with costs.
In support of his motion pursuant to CPLR 510(3) to change the venue of the action from Kings County to Rockland County based upon the convenience of material witness and the ends of justice, the defendant supplied an affidavit which failed to disclose the address of the prospective witness and failed to disclose the facts to which that witness was expected to testify at trial (see Fernandes v. Lawrence, 290 A.D.2d 412; Romero v. Mitchelltown Apts., 281 A.D.2d 612; Rich v. O'Connor, 212 A.D.2d 767). Accordingly, the motion was properly denied (see O'Brien v. Vassar Bros. Hosp., 207 A.D.2d 169, 172-173).
FLORIO, J.P., S. MILLER, TOWNES and MASTRO, JJ., concur.
