DEFENDANTS DID NOT DEMONSTRATE LACK OF NOTICE OF DANGEROUS CONDITION, SUMMARY JUDGMENT PROPERLY DENIED.

The First Department determined the defendants in a slip and fall case were not entitled to summary judgment because they did not affirmatively demonstrate a lack of notice of the icy condition:

 

Defendants did not demonstrate that they lacked constructive notice of the icy condition since they did not proffer an affidavit or testimony based on personal knowledge as to when its employees last inspected the driveway or as to the driveway’s condition prior to the accident … . The testimony of defendants’ branch manager as to his usual and customary practice of inspecting the premises each morning does not satisfy defendants’ burden of showing that they lacked notice of the alleged condition of the driveway prior to the accident, as there was no evidence to show that the manager’s customary practice was followed on the day of the accident … . Singh v Citibank, N.A., 2016 NY Slip Op 01120, 1st Dept 2-16-16
