Ordered that the judgment is affirmed, with costs.
Before granting a motion pursuant to CPLR 4404 (a) to set aside a verdict and for judgment as a matter of law, the trial court must conclude that there is "simply no valid line of reasoning and permissible inferences which could possibly lead rational [people] to the conclusion reached by the jury on the basis of the evidence at trial" ( Cohen v Hallmark Cards, 45 NY2d 493, 499; see Firmes v Chase Manhattan Auto. Fin. Corp., 50 AD3d 18, 29). Here, there is a rational view of the evidence that supports the jury's award for future medical expenses ( see Ayala v Lindy's Dispatching, Inc., 54 AD3d 699, 700; White v Kim, 29 AD3d 685; Martelli v City of New York, 219 AD2d 586). Moreover, the jury's award for future medical expenses was based upon a fair interpretation of the evidence, and thus, was not contrary to the weight of the evidence ( see Scibelli v Eugene G. Herman, D.M.D., P.C., 49 AD3d 627; Nicastro v Park, 113 AD2d 129, 134).
