DECISION ORDER
ORDERED that the order is affirmed, with costs.
The defendant Manuel M. Chauca failed to establish his prima facie entitlement to judgment as a matter of law by demonstrating that he was free from negligence and that his actions were not a proximate cause of the accident ( see Siegel v. Sweeney, 266 A.D.2d 200, 201). Accordingly, the Supreme Court properly denied his motion for summary judgment.
