Ordered that the order is affirmed insofar as appealed from, with one bill of costs payable to the respondents appearing separately and filing separate briefs.
The plaintiffs did not preserve any objection to question No. 2 on the verdict sheet, instructing the jury not to go to any further questions if it answered "No" to question No. 2, "by failing to object to it before the jury retired to deliberate, and then again failing to register an objection and/or request that the jury be sent out for further deliberations before the jurors were discharged" ( Luzardo v. Jamaica Hall Corp., 296 AD2d 383, 384; see Kinney v. Taylor, 305 AD2d 466; Laboda v. VJV Dev. Corp., 296 AD2d 441; Surjnarine v. Brathwaite, 290 AD2d 436; Brown v. Stark, 205 AD2d 725; cf. Voulo v. Bozza, 294 AD2d 494).
Contrary to the plaintiffs' contention, the trial court properly rejected their claim of extrajudicial interference with the jury's deliberation process, as the plaintiffs failed to provide sufficient proof demonstrating that the jury's responses were influenced by the conduct of a court officer ( see Gropper v. St. Luke's Hosp. Ctr., 255 AD2d 123; cf. Burtch v. Shah, 230 AD2d 223).
