PLAINTIFF’S FAILURE TO PROVIDE EVIDENCE OF THE EXACT AMOUNT OF DAMAGES HE SUFFERED FROM DEFENDANT’S BREACH OF CONTRACT PRECLUDED SUMMARY JUDGMENT (SECOND DEPT).

​The Second Department, reversing Supreme Court, determined plaintiff’s failure to submit evidence of the exact amount of damages he suffered due to defendant’s breach of contract. Therefore plaintiff should not have been awarded summary judgment:

“A motion for summary judgment should not be granted where the facts are in dispute, where conflicting inferences may be drawn from the evidence, or where there are issues of credibility” … . “The function of the court on a motion for summary judgment is not to resolve issues of fact or determine matters of credibility, but merely to determine whether such issues exist” … .

Here, the plaintiff failed to submit competent evidence establishing the exact amount of damages that he sustained as a result of defendant’s breaches of the parties’ agreements, and “the record does not permit precise determination of the amount of the money judgment to which the plaintiff is entitled, including a calculation of prejudgment interest” … . Spilman v Matyas, 2023 NY Slip Op 00344, Second Dept 1-25-23

Practice Point: Here, on plaintiff’s summary judgment motion, plaintiff proved defendant’s breach of contract but did not present evidence of the exact amount of damages he suffered. Therefore the motion should not have been granted.

Evidence, Negligence

ALTHOUGH PLAINTIFF ALLEGED HE TRIPPED OVER A HOSE HE HAD PLACED ON THE STEPS, THERE WAS A QUESTION OF FACT WHETHER INADEQUATE LIGHTING WAS ANOTHER PROXIMATE CAUSE OF THE SLIP AND FALL (SECOND DEPT).

The Second Department, reversing Supreme Court, determined defendant’s motion for summary judgment in this slip and fall case should not have been granted. Plaintiff apparently tripped over a hose he had placed on a step. Plaintiff alleged he didn’t see the hose because the light fixture was not working. The court noted that there can be more than one proximate cause of an accident (the hose and the lighting):

There can be more than one proximate cause of an accident and [g]enerally, it is for the trier of fact to determine the issue of proximate cause” … . Here, the defendant failed to eliminate triable issues of fact as to whether inadequate lighting in the area of the subject steps contributed to the plaintiff’s accident … .

A defendant moving for summary judgment in a premises liability case may also establish its prima facie entitlement to judgment as a matter of law by demonstrating that it neither created nor had actual or constructive notice of the existence of the allegedly hazardous condition for a sufficient length of time to discover and remedy it … . Here, the deposition testimony of the defendant’s witness that he would have known if the light fixture near the steps was not working was conclusory and speculative, and failed to address the adequacy of the lighting, even assuming that the light fixture was working … . Reyes v S. Nicolia & Sons Realty Corp., 2023 NY Slip Op 00340, Second Dept 1-25-23

Practice Point: There can be more than one proximate cause of a slip and fall. Here plaintiff tripped over a hose he had placed on the steps and he alleged he didn’t see the hose because of inadequate lighting. Defendant’s motion for summary judgment should not have been granted.

Civil Procedure, Evidence, Foreclosure

IN THIS FORECLOSURE ACTION, THE BANK’S FAILURE TO EXPLAIN WHY AN AFFIDAVIT DEMONSTRATING THE NOTICE OF DEFAULT WAS PROPERLY MAILED WAS NOT SUBMITTED WITH THE INITIAL MOTION FOR SUMMARY JUDGMENT PRECLUDED A MOTION FOR LEAVE TO RENEW (SECOND DEPT).

The Second Department, reversing Supreme Court, determined plaintiff’s motion for lease to renew in this foreclosure action should not have been granted. Supreme Court initially denied the bank’s motion for summary judgment because the proof the notice of default was properly mailed was insufficient. The bank made a motion for leave to renew and submitted an affidavit which Supreme Court deemed sufficient. The Second Department held that the bank’s failure to explain why the affidavit wasn’t produced for the bank’s initial motion precluded renewal:

In support of that branch of its motion which was for leave to renew, the plaintiff submitted the affidavit of Alicia Hernandez, who averred that the required notice of default was mailed by first-class mail and that the address to which the notice of default was sent was the actual notice address. The only explanation offered by the plaintiff for its failure to submit the Hernandez affidavit on its prior motion was that it reasonably believed that the evidentiary submission it had made on the prior motion was sufficient to establish its prima facie case. This contention is devoid of merit. “A party seeking summary judgment should anticipate having to lay bare its proof and should not expect that it will readily be granted a second or third chance” … . In the instant matter, the plaintiff failed to demonstrate any valid reason why the Hernandez affidavit could not have been submitted on its prior motion. Since the Hernandez affidavit was submitted without demonstrating a reasonable justification for failing to submit it on the prior motion, renewal should have been denied … . JPMorgan Chase Bank N.A. v EY Bay Ridge, LLC, 2023 NY Slip Op 00311, Second Dept 1-25-23

Practice Point: Here in this foreclosure action, the bank’s failure to explain why proof of proper mailing of the notice of default was not presented in the initial summary judgment motion required the denial of the bank’s motion for leave to renew.

Evidence, Negligence

DEFENDANT SUPERMARKET DID NOT OFFER PROOF OF WHEN THE AREA OF THE SLIP AND FALL WAS LAST INSPECTED OR CLEANED PRIOR TO THE FALL; THEREFORE DEFENDANT DID NOT DEMONSTRATE A LACK OF CONSTRUCTIVE NOTICE OF THE GRAPES ON THE FLOOR (FIRST DEPT). ​

The First Department, reversing Supreme Court, determined defendant supermarket’s motion for summary judgment in this slip and fall case should not have been granted; Defendant did not demonstrate it lacked constructive notice of the grapes on the floor because it presented no specific evidence of when the area had last been inspected or cleaned prior to the fall:

While defendant showed that it did not create or have actual notice of loose grapes in the produce aisle at the time of plaintiff’s accident, defendant failed to submit sufficient evidence to show, as a matter of law, that it lacked constructive notice of the condition. Specifically, defendant failed to show that its cleaning routine was followed on the day of the accident … . Its store manager testified generally that an employee was assigned to inspect and clean the produce aisle throughout the day and that he personally walked the aisles during the day, but he did not testify regarding any specific cleaning or inspection of the area in question on the day of plaintiff’s fall. A vice president testified that the cleaning protocols were verbal and were based on “common sense,” but did not offer any information as to what steps were taken during the last cleaning cycle prior to plaintiff’s accident, which also was not sufficient to establish lack of constructive notice on behalf of defendant. Accordingly, the burden did not shift to plaintiff to raise an issue of fact in opposition. Polanco v 756 Jomo Food Corp., 2023 NY Slip Op 00284, First Dept 1-24-23

Practice Point: To prevail on a motion for summary judgment in a slip and fall case the defendant must demonstrate a lack of constructive notice by proof the area was inspected or cleaned close in time to the fall.

Criminal Law, Evidence

DEFENDANT’S RAPE CONVICTION BASED SOLELY ON HIS UNCORROBORATED ADMISSION WAS NOT SUPPORTED BY LEGALLY SUFFICIENT EVIDENCE (THIRD DEPT). ​

he Third Department, reversing defendant’s conviction on one count of rape in the second degree, determined there was no corroboration of defendant’s admission to having sex with the victim. Therefore, the conviction was not supported by legally sufficient evidence:

After reviewing the record, we find no evidence corroborating defendant’s admission that he and the victim engaged in sexual intercourse “a few times” in August 2017. Due to the lack of corroboration, the evidence is legally insufficient to support that conviction, and the charge under count 1 must be dismissed … . People v Bateman, 2023 NY Slip Op 00249, Third Dept 1-19-23

Practice Point: A conviction which rests solely on an uncorroborated admission is not supported by legally sufficient evidence.

Evidence, Trusts and Estates

CONFLICTING EVIDENCE OF DECEDENT’S TESTAMENTARY CAPACITY AND PETITIONER’S UNDUE INFLUENCE PRECLUDED SUMMARY DISMISSAL OF RESPONDENT’S OBJECTIONS TO THE WILL SUBMITTED FOR PROBATE BY PETITIONER (THIRD DEPT). ​

The Third Department, reversing Surrogate’s Court, in a full-fledged opinion by Justice Reynolds Fitzgerald, determined the respondent’s (decedent’s niece’s) objections to the probate of the will submitted by petitioner (decedent’s agent) should not have been dismissed. Decedent, in a 2011 will, made respondent the sole beneficiary of his estate. Subsequently decedent executed a 2015 will making petitioner the sole beneficiary of his estate. The Third Department found summary judgment dismissing respondent’s objections was inappropriate because there was conflicting evidence of decedent’s testamentary capacity and petitioner’s undue influence:

… [T]he witnesses affirmed that beginning in late 2014, decedent’s personal hygiene declined, he acted unusual, was confused and forgetful. The medical records, spanning from the fall of 2014, including a contemporaneous record four days subsequent to the execution of the 2015 will, are replete with observations that decedent refused to care for himself resulting in numerous hospitalizations for hyperglycemia, hypoglycemia and urinary tract infections. The records contain multiple entries that decedent suffered from an altered mental state, confusion and was incoherent. This evidence is sufficient to raise an issue of fact regarding decedent’s testamentary capacity … . * * *

Much of the evidence submitted by respondent on the issue of testamentary capacity is also relevant to the issue of undue influence … . Respondent’s witnesses all affirm that while residing at the assisted living facility, decedent was lethargic, frequently complained of being ill, slept a good deal, was unresponsive and was in a weakened state. Decedent’s closest friend described him as being easily manipulated, and stated that he was especially vulnerable to petitioner, with whom he was infatuated. In presenting evidence demonstrating decedent’s physical decline, coupled with his increasing confusion and personality changes, respondent has raised an issue as to whether decedent was unduly influenced by petitioner … . Matter of Linich, 2023 NY Slip Op 00250, Third Dept 1-19-23

Practice Point: Summary judgment is rarely appropriate in a contested probate proceeding. Here conflicting evidence of decedent’s testamentary capacity and petitioner’s undue influence precluded summary judgment dismissing respondent’s objections to probate.

Evidence, Foreclosure, Real Property Actions and Proceedings Law (RPAPL)

PLAINTIFF BANK DID NOT DEMONSTRATE THE NOTICE OF FORECLOSURE WAS MAILED IN ACCORDANCE WITH RPAPL 1304; THE BANK’S MOTION FOR SUMMARY JUDGMENT SHOULDN’T HAVE BEEN GRANTED (SECOND DEPT).

The Second Department, reversing Supreme Court, determined the plaintiff bank in this foreclosure action did not demonstrate the notice of foreclosure was mailed in accordance with the requirements of RPAPL 1304:

… [T]he plaintiff relied on the affidavit of Brown, an employee of Nationstar, the plaintiff’s loan servicer, who stated that the plaintiff had mailed the RPAPL 1304 notice in accordance with the plaintiff’s practices and procedures. However, Brown then stated that her conclusion was based on her review of Nationstar’s file, and on Nationstar’s mailing practices and procedures. Thus, Brown’s affidavit failed to eliminate triable issues of fact as to who actually mailed the RPAPL 1304 notice, and the plaintiff failed to establish, prima facie, that it complied with RPAPL 1304 … . Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. v Matsuoka, 2023 NY Slip Op 00230, Second Dept 1-18-23

Practice Point: In a foreclosure action, if the bank doesn’t prove who mailed the notice of foreclosure as required by RPAPL 1304 the bank’s motion for summary judgment should not be granted.

FATHER MADE A PRIMA FACIE SHOWING THE NYC ADMINISTRATION OF CHILDREN’S SERVICES (ACS) SHOULD BE HELD IN CONTEMPT FOR FAILING TO PROVIDE UNREDACTED REPORTS OF CHILD ABUSE OR NEGLECT WHICH WERE DEEMED UNFOUNDED; MATTER REMITTED (FIRST DEPT). ​

The First Department, reversing (modifying) Family Court and remitting the matter, determined father made a prima facie showing that the NYC Administration of Children’s Services (ACS) should be held in contempt for failing to provide unredacted reports of child abuse or neglect which were deemed unfounded. Father’s request for the unredacted documents should not have been denied absent a finding by Family Court the safety of the person(s) who made the report or cooperated with the investigation would be jeopardized by revealing the name(s):

As the subject of the unfounded reports, the father is a person entitled to receive access to the otherwise sealed reports (Social Services Law § 422 [5][a][iv]). * * *

… [F]ather made a prima facie showing of the elements necessary to hold ACS in contempt for its failure to fully comply with a lawful judicial subpoena …  The subpoena was a valid order expressing an unequivocal mandate, requiring ACS to produce “complete” investigation and unfounded reports of suspected child abuse concerning the children. ACS does not deny that it was aware of the order. Further, ACS did not comply with the subpoena, as it produced reports that redacted the names of sources, not complete reports. Finally, the father suffered prejudice, because his modification petition alleges that the mother was causing false abuse reports to be filed with the authorities, and the unredacted unfounded reports may be admissible in such a proceeding … .

Once the father met his prima facie burden, it was incumbent on ACS to refute the showing or to offer evidence of a defense … . ACS asserted that Social Services Law §422(7) permits the commissioner “to prohibit the release of data that would identify the person who made the report or who cooperated in a subsequent investigation . . . which he reasonably finds will be detrimental to the safety or interests of such person.” However, there was no indication that any such determination had actually been made. Matter of Michael Y. v Dawn S., 2023 NY Slip Op 00193, First Dept 1-17-23

Practice Point: Under the Social Services Law, the NYC Administration of Children’s Services (ACS), in response to a judicial subpoena, must provide unredacted reports of child abuse or neglect which were deemed unfounded, unless ACS can demonstrate revealing the names of the sources of the reports jeopardizes the safety of those sources.

THE EVIDENCE SUBMITTED IN SUPPORT OF THE MOTION TO DISMISS WAS NOT “DOCUMENTARY EVIDENCE” WITHIN THE MEANING OF CPLR 3211(A)(1); THE MOTION SHOULD NOT HAVE BEEN GRANTED (SECOND DEPT).

The Second Department, reversing Supreme Court, determined the defendant-employer’s motion to dismiss in this traffic accident case should not have been granted. The employer argued the defendant-employee was driving his own car and was not operating the car in the course of his employment. The evidence submitted by the employer was not “documentary evidence” which would support a motion to dismiss:

“A motion to dismiss on the ground that the action is barred by documentary evidence pursuant to CPLR 3211(a)(1) may be granted only where the documentary evidence utterly refutes the plaintiff’s factual allegations, conclusively establishing a defense as a matter of law” … . “[T]o be considered ‘documentary,’ evidence must be unambiguous and of undisputed authenticity” … . “[J]udicial records, as well as documents reflecting out-of-court transactions such as mortgages, deeds, contracts, and any other papers, the contents of which are essentially undeniable, would qualify as documentary evidence in the proper case” … . “Neither affidavits, deposition testimony, nor letters are considered documentary evidence within the intendment of CPLR 3211(a)(1)” … . Davis v Henry, 2023 NY Slip Op 00076, Second Dept 1-11-23

Practice Point: “Documentary evidence” which will support a motion to dismiss include mortgages, deeds, contracts, etc., not affidavits, deposition testimony or letters.

MEDICAL (SURGICAL) RECORDS IN A NO-FAULT FILE RELATED TO A PRIOR INJURY SUFFERED BY PLAINTIFF SHOULD NOT HAVE BEEN ADMITTED IN THIS DAMAGES TRIAL; NEW TRIAL ON DAMAGES ORDERED (FIRST DEPT).

​The First Department, reversing the damages judgment and ordering a new trial, determined medical records included the the no-fault file regarding a prior injury suffered by plaintiff should not have been admitted:

The court … should not have allowed into evidence the operative and pathology reports from the 2002 surgical procedure that were contained in the file of the no-fault insurance carrier. While the no-fault file was properly admitted as a business record under CPLR 4518(a), the reports therein were not created by the carrier and, thus, were inadmissible … . There was no evidence of a relationship between the carrier and the surgeon or the hospital where the procedure was performed so as to permit the reports to remain as part of the carrier’s file … . Basden v Liberty Lines Tr., Inc., 2023 NY Slip Op 00050, First Dept 1-10-22

Practice Pont: Although the no-fault file re: a prior accident in which plaintiff was injured was admissible, the surgical records included in the file were not. New trial on damages ordered.
