Hecht v. City of New York
Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of the State of New York
1Opinion of the Court
Judgment-, Supreme Court, New York County (Dier, J.), entered November 24, 1980, granting plaintiff judgment against the City of New York and Square Depew Garage Corp. in the amount of $50,547.50, reversed, on the law, and vacated, and the complaint is dismissed, without costs. In this negligence action there was no showing that an actionable defect in the sidewalk existed. Without any evidence to support such a finding it was legal error to permit the jury to consider whether either defendant had had constructive notice and an obligation to repair. {Cohen v Hallmark Cards, 45 NY2d 493, 499.)…
