The motion was properly denied. Plaintiffs supervisor’s affidavit raises issues of fact as to whether plaintiffs injury was caused by a fall not from a ladder but down some stairs, and even as to whether there was a ladder at the work site (cf., Klein v City of New York, 89 NY2d 833, 835). Concur — Williams, J. P., Tom, Rubin and Andrias, JJ.
