WILLIAMSON v. CITY OF NEW YORK

Defendant's alleged good faith efforts are belied by its repeated failure to produce the witness for any of the three court-ordered deposition dates spanning a period of two years ( see, Periphery Loungewear v. Kantron Roofing Corp., 214 A.D.2d 438), and its excuses are insufficient to establish a reasonable basis for its noncompliance ( see, Furniture Fantasy v. Cerrone, 154 A.D.2d 506).

Concur — Milonas, J.P., Rosenberger, Nardelli and Tom, JJ.
