ORDERED that the order is affirmed insofar as appealed from, without costs or disbursements.
It is well settled that summary judgment is a drastic remedy that is to be granted only where there is no clear triable issue of fact ( see, Andre v. Pomeroy, 35 N.Y.2d 361). In deciding the motion, the evidence must be viewed in the light most favorable to the opposing party ( see, Matter of Benincasa v. Garrubbo, 141 A.D.2d 636). Here, the record presents triable issues of fact as to whether the defendant intentionally concealed and failed to disclose material information to the plaintiffs relating to their investment, and as to whether the defendant misappropriated a portion of the plaintiffs' funds. Accordingly, the Supreme Court properly denied the defendant's motion for summary judgment.
