Plaintiff's deposition testimony to the effect that she discovered a waxy substance on her clothes after she slipped and fell, along with the affidavit of plaintiff's witness, Sonia Morales, stating that she saw plaintiff fall on an area of flooring that was being waxed and had been left, prior to being buffed by defendant's employee, with a residue of waxy material and without warnings or barricades, was sufficient to raise triable issues as to whether defendant was responsible for creating the hazard to which plaintiff attributes her harm (see, Pangakos v. Greek Archdiocese of N. S. Am., 213 A.D.2d 336). While defendant questions Ms. Morales' credibility, issues as to witness credibility are not appropriately resolved on a motion for summary judgment (see, Welch v. Riverbay Corp., 273 A.D.2d 66). We have considered defendant's remaining contentions and find them unavailing.
THIS CONSTITUTES THE DECISION AND ORDER OF THE SUPREME COURT, APPELLATE DIVISION, FIRST DEPARTMENT.
