MARTHA GONZALEZ, Respondent, v. PALMA M. FELSON et al., Appellants.

Ordered that the judgment is affirmed, with costs.

The Supreme Court properly denied the defendants' request for a missing-witness charge ( see, PJI 1:75) since the testimony of the two doctors would have been merely cumulative ( see, Kane v. Linsky, 156 A.D.2d 333, 334; Levande v. Dines, 153 A.D.2d 671, 672; Getlin v. St. Vincent's Hosp. Med. Ctr., 117 A.D.2d 707, 708).

Contrary to the defendants' assertions on appeal, the damage award did not deviate materially from what would be reasonable compensation ( see, CPLR 5501 [c]).

The defendants' remaining contention is without merit.

Copertino, J. P., Friedmann, Krausman and Goldstein, JJ., concur.
