1Opinion of the CourtPeters, J.
Appeal from an order of the Supreme Court (Moynihan, Jr., J.), entered April 18, 2002 in Washington County, which denied defendants’ motion for summary judgment dismissing the complaint.
Plaintiff commenced this action individually and on behalf of her then seven-year-old daughter who was bitten in the face by defendants’ 130-pound Great Dane. Following joinder of issue and discovery, defendants moved for summary judgment dismissing the complaint or, alternatively, for a bifurcated trial. Supreme Court denied defendants’ motion, prompting this appeal.
