RONALD JONES, Appellant, v. PATRICK N. GOODING, Respondent.

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

The Supreme Court properly granted that branch of the defendant's renewed motion which was, in effect, pursuant to CPLR 4401 for judgment as a matter of law since "upon the evidence presented, there [was] no rational process by which the fact trier could" find that the plaintiff sustained a serious injury ( Szczerbiak v Pilat, 90 NY2d 553, 556; see Crespo v Kramer, 295 AD2d 467, 468). Since the plaintiff missed only one day of work as a result of the injuries he sustained in the subject motor vehicle accident, he failed to establish a prima facie case that he suffered a medically-determined injury which prevented him from "performing substantially all of the material acts which constitute[d] [his] usual and customary daily activities" for at least 90 of the first 180 days following the accident (Insurance Law § 5102 [d]; see Crespo v Kramer, 295 AD2d at 468).
