DECISION ORDER
ORDERED that the order is affirmed insofar as appealed from, with one bill of costs to the respondents appearing separately and filing separate briefs.
Contrary to the plaintiff's contentions, there was probable cause for her arrest. The existence of probable cause bars the plaintiff's causes of action to recover damages for malicious prosecution and false arrest (see, Broughton v. State of New York, 37 N.Y.2d 451, cert denied 423 U.S. 929 ). Accordingly, those causes of action were properly dismissed.
FRIEDMANN, J.P., KRAUSMAN, FLORIO, and SMITH, JJ., concur.
