KEITH GIBISER, an Infant, by His Father and Natural Guardian, RUDOLPH GIBISER, et al., Respondents, v. LaSALLE CENTER, Appellant, et al., Defendant.

Ordered that the order is reversed, on the law, with costs, the motion is granted, the complaint is dismissed insofar as asserted against the appellant, and the action against the remaining defendant is severed.

The instant action seeks to recover damages for personal injuries allegedly sustained by the infant plaintiff during an altercation with the defendant Ricardo Whitaker, a student at the defendant LaSalle Center (hereinafter LaSalle).

Given that LaSalle had no actual or constructive notice of prior or similar violent conduct on the part of Whitaker, it is not liable for any injuries resulting from the altercation between the plaintiff and Whitaker. Thus, LaSalle's motion for summary judgment is granted ( see, Mirand v. City of New York, 84 N.Y.2d 44; Kennedy v. Seaford Union Free School Dist., 250 A.D.2d 574).

O'Brien, J. P., Sullivan, Krausman and Florio, JJ., concur.
