Dante Hadley et al., Appellants, v Ofir A. Keren et al., Respondents.
[871 NYS2d 918]

Opinion:
In an action to recover damages for personal injuries, the plaintiffs appeal, as limited by their brief, from so much of an order of the Supreme Court, Richmond County (Maltese, J.), dated June 13, 2007, as granted the separate motions of the defendants Marie Christine Warren and United Services Automobile Association, and the defendant Jose M. Miranda, for summary judgment dismissing the complaint insofar as asserted against each of them on the ground that the plaintiffs did not sustain a serious injury within the meaning of Insurance Law § 5102 (d) and granted those branches of the separate cross motions of the defendant Ofir A. Keren and the defendant Gennady Diefvsky which were for summary judgment dismissing the complaint insofar as asserted against each of them on the ground that neither of the plaintiffs sustained a serious injury within the meaning of Insurance Law § 5102 (d).
Ordered that the order is affirmed insofar as appealed from, with one bill of costs payable to the defendants appearing separately and filing separate briefs.
The defendants established, prima facie, that neither of the plaintiffs sustained a serious injury within the meaning of Insurance Law § 5102 (d) (see Toure v Avis Rent A Car Sys., 98 NY2d 345, 352 [2002J; Gaddy v Eyler, 79 NY2d 955, 956-957 [1992]). In opposition, the plaintiffs failed to raise a triable issue of fact (see CPLR 3212 [b]). Rivera, J.P., Miller, Garni and McCarthy, JJ., concur. [See 2007 NY Slip Op 31674(U).]
