DEFENDANTS DEMONSTRATED THEY DID NOT HAVE ACTUAL OR CONSTRUCTIVE NOTICE OF THE CARDBOARD ON THE SIDEWALK WHICH CAUSED PLAINTIFF TO SLIP AND FALL, DEFENDANT’S MOTION FOR SUMMARY JUDGMENT PROPERLY GRANTED (SECOND DEPT).

The Second Department determined defendant property owners demonstrated they did not have actual or constructive notice of the cardboard on the sidewalk which caused plaintiff to slip and fall:

…[T]he … defendants established their prima facie entitlement to judgment as a matter of law by submitting evidence of their trash collection and disposal practices, deposition testimony regarding the routine cleaning of the sidewalk each morning, and deposition testimony from several witnesses who walked through the area shortly before the plaintiff's accident and did not observe the condition that allegedly caused his fall … . In opposition, the plaintiff presented speculative arguments that were insufficient to raise a triable issue of fact … . Mandarano v PND, LLC, 2018 NY Slip Op 00133, Second Dept 1-10-18
