PAUL BRABENDER, an Infant, by His Parent and Natural Guardian, RUDOLPH BRABENDER, et al., Respondents, v. PAUL H. BROSSEAU et al., Appellants, et al., Defendants.

Ordered that the order is affirmed, with one bill of costs.

In this personal injury action arising from an automobile accident, the appellants Paul H. Brosseau and his employer, Metropolitan Life Insurance Company, separately moved for summary judgment, claiming that Brosseau was presented with an emergency situation absolving him of any negligence as a matter of law (see, e.g., Greifer v. Schneider, 215 A.D.2d 354; Glick v. City of New York, 191 A.D.2d 677). We agree, however, with the Supreme Court's conclusion that the evidence submitted by the plaintiffs in opposition to the appellants' motions was sufficient to raise a triable issue of fact regarding Brosseau's conduct (see, Mollicone v. Miller, 84 N.Y.2d 835, revg 202 A.D.2d 886, on dissent of Yesawich Jr., J.).

We have considered the parties' remaining contentions and find them to be without merit or not properly before this Court. Bracken, J.P., O'Brien, Goldstein and Florio, JJ., concur.
