p. 779
APPEARANCES OF COUNSEL
Thomas Torto, New York City, for appellants.
Wilson, Elser, Moskowitz, Edelman & Dicker LLP, New York City (Richard Lerner and Melissa Murphy-Petros of counsel), for respondents.
OPINION OF THE COURT
On review of submissions pursuant to section 500.11 of the Rules of the Court of Appeals (22 NYCRR 500.11), order reversed, with costs, and defendants’ motion for summary judgment denied. We agree with the dissenting justices at the Appellate Division that the injured plaintiff presented issues of fact as to how his foot was crushed and whether his injuries were a result of the Consolidated Edison driver’s negligence, which preclude the grant of summary judgment to defendants.
Concur: Chief Judge Kaye and Judges Ciparick, Graffeo, Read, Smith, Pigott and Jones.
