Opinion of the Court

—In an action to recover damages for personal injuries, etc., the plaintiffs appeal from an order of the Supreme Court, Kings County (Belen, J.), dated August 27, 1998, which granted the defendant’s motion for summary judgment dismissing the complaint as barred by Workers’ Compensation Law § 29 (6).
