TOWN DID NOT ADDRESS ALL THEORIES OF LIABILITY RAISED BY THE PLEADINGS IN THIS SLIP AND FALL CASE, MOTION FOR SUMMARY JUDGMENT PROPERLY DENIED ON THAT GROUND.

The Second Department determined the town did not make the requisite showing for summary judgment in this slip and fall case. The town's motion did not address all of the theories of liability raised in the pleadings:

Here, the plaintiff, in her pleadings, alleged that the Town created the hole in the parking lot that caused her to fall, and that the Town made a special use of the parking lot. Thus, in support of its motion for summary judgment, the Town was required to demonstrate, prima facie, that it did not have prior written notice of the allegedly defective condition, that it did not create the condition, and that it did not make a special use of the parking lot … . Since the Town failed to make this showing, the burden never shifted to the plaintiff to submit evidence sufficient to raise a triable issue of fact. Breest v Long Is. R.R., 2016 NY Slip Op 04376, 2nd Dept 6-8-16
