Municipal Law, Negligence

DEFENDANT’S MOTION FOR SUMMARY JUDGMENT IN PLAINTIFF FIREFIGHTER’S GENERAL MUNICIPAL LAW 205-a ACTION SHOULD NOT HAVE BEEN GRANTED (CT APP).

The Court of Appeals, in a brief memorandum decision with no discussion of the facts, determined the defendant's motion for summary judgment in this General Municipal Law 205-a action by a firefighter should not have been granted:

With respect to the General Municipal Law § 205-a cause of action, defendant's submissions of a certificate of occupancy and an expert affidavit that did not sufficiently respond to plaintiffs' General Municipal Law § 205-a claim were insufficient, without more, to meet its prima facie burden as the party moving for summary judgment (see Powers v 31 E 31 LLC, 24 NY3d 84, 93 [2014]). Viselli v Riverbay Corp., 2018 NY Slip Op 05968, CtApp 9-6-18
