EDWARD BOHAN et al., Appellants, v. F.R.P. SHEET METAL CONTRACTING CORPORATION et al., Respondents, et al., Defendant.

Ordered that the order is affirmed insofar as appealed from, with one bill of costs.

The defendants F.R.P. Sheet Metal Contracting Corporation, RC Dolner, Inc., J.T. Falk Company, LLC, and Five Star Electric Corp. (hereinafter the defendants) established, prima facie, their entitlement to judgment as a matter of law. In opposition, the plaintiff's failed to raise a triable issue of fact ( see Alvarez v Prospect Hosp., 68 NY2d 320, 324). The Supreme Court correctly concluded that the expert affidavit submitted by the plaintiff's failed to raise a triable issue of fact. In his affidavit, the expert did not sufficiently "identify any specific industry standard upon which he relied," nor did he supply any specific statutory or code violations ( Milligan v Sharman, 52 AD3d 1238, 1239; see Lombardo v Cedar Brook Golf Tennis Club, Inc., 39 AD3d 818, 819; Fitzgerald v Sears, Roebuck Co., 17 AD3d 522, 523; Veccia v Clearmeadow Pistol Club, 300 AD2d 472; Cicero v Selden Assoc., 295 AD2d 391, 392). Thus, the expert's affidavit was insufficient to defeat the defendants' entitlement to summary judgment ( see Romano v Stanley, 90 NY2d 444, 451; Murphy v Conner, 84 NY2d 969, 972; Veccia v Clearmeadow Pistol Club, 300 AD2d at 472).

In light of the foregoing, we need not reach the plaintiff's' remaining contention.
