PINKARD v. NEW YORK CITY HOUSING AUTHORITY, 2001-01158 [2d Dept 2002

ORDERED that the judgment is affirmed, with costs.

Contrary to the plaintiff's contention, he was not prejudiced by the court's instructions to the jury (see Kambat v. St. Francis Hosp., 89 N.Y.2d 489, 494; Thompson v. Pizza Hut of Am., 262 A.D.2d 302, 303; Raimondi v. New York Racing Assn., 213 A.D.2d 708, 709).

A fair interpretation of the evidence supports the jury's determination that the New York City Housing Authority was not negligent (see Nicastro v. Park, 113 A.D.2d 129).

The plaintiff's remaining contentions are either without merit or do not require reversal.

ALTMAN, J.P., SMITH, H. MILLER and ADAMS, JJ., concur.
