EVIDENCE OF GENERAL CLEANING PRACTICES NOT ENOUGH TO DEMONSTRATE LACK OF CONSTRUCTIVE NOTICE IN A SLIP AND FALL CASE.

The Second Department determined defendant’s motion for summary judgment in this slip and fall case was properly denied. Defendant offered evidence only of its general cleaning practices rather than specific evidence when the area was lasted cleaned or inspected:

Here, the defendant failed to establish, prima facie, that it did not have constructive notice of the alleged hazardous condition that caused the plaintiff to fall. The deposition testimony of the defendant’s caretaker, submitted in support of the motion, did not establish when the accident site was last inspected in relation to the plaintiff’s fall. The caretaker merely testified about general cleaning practices, with no evidence regarding any specific cleaning or inspection of the area in question, which is insufficient to establish a lack of constructive notice … . Jeremias v Lake Forest Estates, 2017 NY Slip Op 00635, 2nd Dept 2-1-17
