DEFENDANT PROPERTY OWNER DID NOT REBUT THE PRESUMPTION THAT THE DEED WAS DELIVERED AND ACCEPTED ON THE DATE OF THE DEED IN THIS SLIP AND FALL CASE, THE PLAINTIFF’S ALLEGED FALL OCCURRED THE DAY AFTER THE DATE OF THE DEED (THIRD DEPT).

The Third Department determined that defendant did not rebut the presumption that the deed to the property where plaintiff fell was delivered and accepted the day before plaintiff’s fall:

… [D]efendant submitted, among other things, an executed copy of the referee’s deed transferring ownership of the subject property to defendant, dated March 28, 2013, one day before plaintiff’s alleged accident. Based on the foregoing, there is a strong presumption that the deed was delivered and accepted as of that date (see Real Property Law § 244…). The only additional documentation that defendant submitted to overcome the presumption was an affidavit from Anthony Iacchetta, an attorney who represented defendant’s predecessor in interest in its acquisition of the subject premises and a letter from Iacchetta’s firm dated April 11, 2013. In his affidavit, Iacchetta represents “that the transfer documents executed by the referee were not received by [his] firm until April 11, 2013,” and he provided a copy of the letter sent that same day forwarding said documentation to be countersigned. The documents submitted by defendant, however, do not address the parties’ intent or whether the deed was intended to be delivered and accepted as of April 11, 2013, as opposed to the deed’s March 28, 2013 execution date. Defendant, therefore, failed to rebut the presumption that the deed was delivered and accepted on March 28, 2013 … . Wisdom v Reoco, LLC, 2018 NY Slip Op 04628, Third Dept 6-21-18
