William Sanderson, Respondent, v Lonero Transit, Inc., et al., Appellants.
    [857 NYS2d 911]
   In an action to recover damages for personal injuries, the defendants appeal from , an order of the Supreme Court, Kings County (Schmidt, J.), dated May 15, 2007, which denied their motion for summary judgment dismissing the complaint on the ground that the plaintiff did not sustain a serious injury within the meaning of Insurance Law § 5102 (d).

Ordered that the order is affirmed, with costs.

The defendants met their prima facie burden of showing that the plaintiff did not sustain a serious injury within the meaning of Insurance Law § 5102 (d) as a result of the subject accident (see Toure v Avis Rent A Car Sys., 98 NY2d 345 [2002]; Gaddy v Eyler, 79 NY2d 955, 956-957 [1992]). In opposition, however, the plaintiff raised a triable issue of fact. Mastro, J.E, Skelos, Lifson and Leventhal, JJ, concur.
