MANUEL CIORDIA et al., Respondents, v. DANIELA LUCHIAN et al., Appellants.

Ordered that the order is reversed insofar as appealed from, on the law, with one bill of costs payable to the appellants appearing separately and filing separate briefs, and the defendants' separate motions for summary judgment dismissing the complaint are granted.

The defendants made a prima facie showing that neither of the plaintiffs sustained a serious injury within the meaning of Insurance Law § 5102 (d) as a result of the subject motor vehicle accident in June 2005 ( see Toure v Avis Rent A Car Sys., 98 NY2d 345; Gaddy v Eyler, 79 NY2d 955, 956-957). In opposition, the plaintiffs failed to raise a triable issue of fact ( see D'Alba v Yong-Ae Choi, 33 AD3d 650). Crucially, the affirmed reports of the plaintiffs' examining physicians failed to address the findings of the defendants' examining radiologist, which attributed the condition of the plaintiffs' lumbosacral spines to degenerative processes ( id. at 651). The plaintiffs also failed to proffer competent medical evidence that they were unable to perform substantially all of their daily activities for not less than 90 of the first 180 days subsequent to the accident ( see Letellier v Walker, 222 AD2d 658).
