McCLOGHRIE v. ROCK CORP (1999)

Supreme Court, Appellate Division, First Department, New York.

Carol Williams McCLOGHRIE, et al., Plaintiffs-Appellants, v. B.E. ROCK CORP., etc., et al., Defendants-Respondents.

Decided: June 29, 1999

ELLERIN, P.J., MAZZARELLI, RUBIN, ANDRIAS and BUCKLEY, JJ.

Raymond E. Kerno, for Plaintiffs-Appellants. Kevin A. Jones, for Defendants-Respondents.

Order, Supreme Court, New York County (Harold Tompkins, J.), entered May 6, 1998, which, insofar as appealed from as limited by appellants' brief, granted defendants-respondents' motions for summary judgment dismissing the complaint as against them, unanimously affirmed, without costs.

We agree that the doctrine of res ipsa loquitur does not apply to plaintiff's fall in this instance, in light of plaintiff's failure to identify the instrumentality that caused her fall.
