ROLDAN v. MOLYNEUX

Plaintiff, who was injured as the result of a fall when cleaning for the first time the top of a newly constructed glass enclosure, was not engaged in the type of routine household window washing maintenance work excluded from statutory protection ( see, Brown v. Christopher St. Owners Corp., 87 N.Y.2d 938). The IAS Court therefore properly imposed liability on defendants for failure to furnish safety devices (Labor Law § 240).

Concur — Rosenberger, J.P., Rubin, Kupferman and Nardelli, JJ.
