Purcell v. York Building Maintenance Corp.

211 Plaintiffs deposition testimony that the floor on which she slipped was “very shiny” and “over waxed,” without more, does not support an inference of negligent waxing or polishing (see Davies v City of New York, 39 AD3d 390 [2007], lv denied 9 NY3d 808 [2007]). Nor may such inference be made on the basis of plaintiffs testimony that a carpet and a yellow “caution” or “slippery” sign were placed on the floor shortly after her fall (see Fernandez v Higdon El. Co., 220 AD2d 293 [1995]). We have considered plaintiffs other evidence and arguments and find them unavailing. Concur—Mazzarelli, J.P., Saxe, Catterson, Renwick and Freedman, JJ.
