Head Matter:
Patrick J. Kelley, Respondent, v Weaver Corporation et al., Respondents, and Burton S. August, as Trustee under Trust Agreement among Burton S. August and Others, et al., Appellants.
[656 NYS2d 981]

Opinion:
Order unanimously affirmed with costs. Memorandum: Supreme Court properly denied the motion of the August Trust for summary judgment dismissing the negligence and Labor Law § 200 causes of action. There are triable issues of fact whether the August Trust exercised control over the Monro Muffler premises and/or were chargeable with actual or constructive notice of the alleged dangerous condition of the overhead hydraulic lift.
