NO ONE WITNESSED FOUR-YEAR-OLD’S INJURY, DEFENDANT’S MOTION FOR SUMMARY JUDGMENT PROPERLY GRANTED, PLAINTIFFS COULD NOT IDENTIFY THE CAUSE OF THE INJURY, INFANT PLAINTIFF SAID SHE WAS INJURED ON AN INFLATABLE SLIDE (SECOND DEPT).

The Second Department determined defendant property-owner's motion for summary judgment in the inflatable-slide injury case was properly granted:

The plaintiff's daughter allegedly was injured as she slid down an inflatable slide at a facility owned and operated by the defendant Live, Play and Bounce Corp. (hereinafter the defendant). Although both of her parents were present when the accident allegedly occurred, neither witnessed it. The child, four years old at the time, came to her mother crying, and reporting that she fell and hurt her arm while on a slide. The plaintiff commenced this action to recover damages for personal injuries on behalf of her daughter. …

Based on the deposition testimony of the child's parents, the defendant established its prima facie entitlement to judgment as a matter of law dismissing the complaint by demonstrating that the plaintiff was unable to identify the cause of the child's accident … . Harris v Live, Play & Bounce Corp., 2018 NY Slip Op 05918, Second Dept 8-29-18
