Opinion
December 27, 1993
Appeal from the Supreme Court, Nassau County (Burke, J.).
Ordered that the judgment is affirmed insofar as appealed from, with costs.
The plaintiff, in his motion papers, established his entitlement to compensatory damages, and, in response to the motion, the appellants submitted the bare affirmation of an attorney who demonstrated no personal knowledge of the transactions which formed the bases of the plaintiff's various causes of action. The affirmation is without evidentiary value and thus unavailing (see, Zuckerman v City of New York, 49 N.Y.2d 557, 563; Romano v St. Vincent's Med. Ctr., 178 A.D.2d 467, 470).
The appellants' remaining contention is without merit. Thompson, J.P., Sullivan, Miller and Santucci, JJ., concur.
