ELAINA MACKENZIE, Appellant, v. CITY OF NEW YORK, Respondent.

Ordered that the order is affirmed, with costs.

In support of her cross motion for summary judgment on the issue of liability, the plaintiff failed to make a prima facie showing that she was free from comparative fault ( see Singh v Doo Jae Lee, 76 AD3d 555; Roman v Al Limousine, Inc., 76 AD3d 552; Yuen hum v Wallace, 70 AD3d 1013; Sale v Lee, 49 AD3d 854; Valore v Mcintosh, 8 AD 3d 662). As such, the plaintiff failed to establish, prima facie, her entitlement to judgment as a matter of law on the issue of the defendant's liability ( see Thoma v Ronai, 82 NY2d 736; Alvarez v Prospect Hosp., 68 NY2d 320, 324). Since the plaintiff failed to meet her burden, we need not review the sufficiency of the defendant's opposition papers ( see Winegrad v New York Univ. Med. Ctr, 64 NY2d 851, 853). Accordingly, the Supreme Court properly denied the plaintiffs cross motion for summary judgment on the issue of liability.
