An issue of fact exists as to whether defendants had actual or constructive notice of the alleged loose condition of the carpet, raised by, inter alia, the affidavits of plaintiff's supervisor that he had advised defendants on several occasions prior to plaintiff's accident of loose carpeting in the area of plaintiff's accident, and that defendants repeatedly called an outside company to tighten the carpet but that it kept loosening (see, Alagna v. Marsh McLennan Cos., 263 A.D.2d 430). A different result is not required simply because the alleged repairs were not performed by defendants' employees (see, Parsons v. City of New York, 195 A.D.2d 282, 284).
THIS CONSTITUTES THE DECISION AND ORDER OF THE SUPREME COURT, APPELLATE DIVISION, FIRST DEPARTMENT.
