Cuebas v. City of Yonkers
Opinion of the Court
In opposition, the plaintiffs failed to raise a triable issue of fact (see Amabile v City of Buffalo, 93 NY2d 471 [1999]; Lichtman v Village of Kiryas Joel, 90 AD3d 1001 [2011]). The injured plaintiffs affidavit, submitted in opposition, presented feigned issues of fact designed to avoid the consequences of her earlier testimony, taken pursuant to General Municipal Law § 50-h, and thus was insufficient to defeat the defendant’s motion (see Hunt v Meyers, 63 AD3d 685, 685-686 [2009]). Accordingly, the Supreme Court should have granted the defendant’s motion for summary judgment dismissing the complaint. Balkin, J.P., Hall, Lott and Cohen, JJ., concur.
