BENICIA DELAROSA, Indi v. dually and as Mother and Natural Guardian of CYNTHIA MELO, an Infant, Respondent,

Ordered that the order is modified, on the law, by deleting therefrom the provision denying those branches of the appellants' motion which were for summary judgment dismissing the second and third causes of action and substituting therefor a provision granting those branches of the motion; as so modified, the order is affirmed insofar as appealed from, with costs to the appellants.

The plaintiffs have raised a triable issue of fact ( see, CPLR 3212 [b]) as to whether the accident was caused by the appellants' negligence. However, in light of the plaintiffs' concession that the infant plaintiff did not incur any damages as a result of the accident, the cause of action asserted by her should be dismissed, as should the derivative action asserted by her mother.

Bracken, J. P., Pizzuto, Altman and Krausman, JJ., concur.
