Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of the State of New York

1Opinion of the Court
*295Defendants satisfied their burden of establishing prima facie entitlement to summary judgment on plaintiffs claims of permanent and significant limitations by submitting the affirmation of their expert orthopedist. Although defendants initially submitted the affirmation unsigned, the court properly permitted them to serve a signed, otherwise identical, copy of the affirmation with their reply papers, which caused no prejudice to plaintiff (see Aguilar v N.Y.C. Water Works, 298 AD2d 245 [2002]; DiLeo v Blumberg, 250 AD2d 364, 365 [1998]).
