Opinion

June 22, 1993

Appeal from the Supreme Court, New York County (Stanley Sklar, J.).

We agree with the IAS Court that the contrary medical opinion and other evidence presented by petitioner does not establish, as a matter of law, that petitioner's current, permanent disability is the natural and proximate result of the line-of-duty injuries he sustained in 1982, 1983 and 1987 (see, Matter of Polak v Board of Trustees, 188 A.D.2d 341).
