Ordered that the amended order is affirmed, with costs.
On a rainy day, the injured plaintiff allegedly slipped and fell on water on the foyer floor of premises owned by the defendants Congregation Bais Arye, Leonard Freund, Sylvia Freund, Abraham Freund, Edith Freund, and Jacob Gluck (hereinafter the defendants). Contrary to the defendants' contention, they failed to submit evidence sufficient to establish, prima facie, their status as out-of-possession landlords who had no duty to maintain the foyer ( see generally Massucci v Amoco Oil Co., 292 AD2d 351; Stalter v Prudential Ins. Co. of Am., 220 AD2d 577). Since the defendants did not address the issue of whether they created or had actual or constructive notice of the alleged defect, they failed to meet their prima facie burden and, accordingly, we need not review the sufficiency of the plaintiffs' opposition papers ( see Kolosovskiy v Vitale, 7 AD3d 579).
