DECISION ORDER
ORDERED that the order is affirmed, with costs.
To prove a prima facie case of negligence in a slip-and-fall case, a plaintiff is required to show that the defendant created the condition which caused the accident or that the defendant had actual or constructive notice of the condition ( see Luciani v. Waldbaum, Inc., 304 A.D.2d 537; Goldman v. Waldbaum, Inc., 248 A.D.2d 436). Accordingly, on the defendant's motion, he was required to make a prima facie showing of entitlement to summary judgment by establishing that he neither created nor had actual or constructive notice of the condition ( see Luciani v. Waldbaum, Inc., supra). The evidence submitted by the defendant in the form of the parties' testimony at their examinations before trial failed to establish that the defendant did not create the condition. Therefore, the Supreme Court properly denied the motion.
