Opinion
May 27, 1994
Appeal from the Supreme Court, Onondaga County, Hayes, J.
Present — Green, J.P., Pine, Balio, Callahan and Boehm, JJ.
Order unanimously modified on the law and as modified affirmed without costs in accordance with the following Memorandum: Supreme Court erred in granting plaintiff's motion for partial summary judgment. Where a party fails to comply with the statutory mandate that a summary judgment motion be supported by copies of the pleadings (see, CPLR 3212 [b]), summary judgment should be denied (see, Somers Realty Corp. v. Big "V" Props., 149 A.D.2d 581; Freeman v. Easy Glider Roller Rink, 114 A.D.2d 436). The record in this case is devoid of pleadings. For that reason, Supreme Court properly denied defendants' cross motion for partial summary judgment.
