DECISION ORDER
ORDERED that the order is reversed, on the law, with costs, the motion is denied, and the complaint is reinstated.
It is well settled that a court is required to assume the truth of a plaintiff's allegations when considering a motion to dismiss pursuant to CPLR 3211(a)(7) (see, Edmond v. International Bus. Machs. Corp., 91 N.Y.2d 949). In determining whether a complaint is sufficient so as to withstand a motion pursuant to CPLR 3211 (a)(7), "the sole criterion is whether the pleading states a cause of action, and if from its four corners factual allegations are discerned which taken together manifest any cause of action cognizable at law a motion for dismissal will fail" (Guggenheimer v. Ginzburg, 43 N.Y.2d 268, 275; see, Sutton v. Aurnou, 149 A.D.2d 687).
Here the plaintiff demonstrated a viable cause of action alleging breach of contract based upon the defendants' alleged failure to abide by certain terms of the escrow agreement which the parties executed in connection with the subject rental property. In addition, the documentary evidence submitted by the defendants did not definitively dispose of the plaintiff's claims (see, CPLR 3211[a][1]; Juliano v. McEntee, 150 A.D.2d 524). Accordingly, the defendants were not entitled to dismissal of the complaint.
