NANNINI CALLAHAN EXCAVATING, INC., Respondent, v. PARK ROAD CONSTRUCTION CORP., Appellant.

Ordered that the judgment is affirmed, with costs.

The trial court properly admitted into evidence, under the business record exception to the hearsay rule, a series of weight slips to establish the value of goods provided by the plaintiff in the construction of a roadway for the defendant (CPLR 4518 [a]; see also, People v Kennedy, 68 NY2d 569, 579-580; Johnson v Lutz, 253 NY 124, 128). Moreover, the court correctly determined that the defendant's failure to plead partial payment as an affirmative defense in this action bars it from receiving a setoff against the judgment (CPLR 3211 [e]; 3018 [b]; see also, Munson v New York Seed Improvement Coop., 64 NY2d 985). In any event, the defendant failed to prove that the $25,000 payment, which it sought to have applied as a setoff against the judgment, was in fact a payment for which it never received credit.
