Gialleonardo, Gizzo & Rayhill, Elmsford (Jonathan R. Walsh of counsel, for Bayport Construction Corp., respondent.

Order, Supreme Court, Bronx County (Lucindo Suarez, J.), entered on or about January 23, 2017, which, inter alia, denied plaintiffs' motion for partial summary judgment on the issue of liability, unanimously affirmed, without costs.

Plaintiffs' motion was properly denied in this action where the 16-year-old infant plaintiff was injured when he allegedly fell from an A-frame ladder while attempting to install a metal duct. The record shows that discovery including depositions has not yet been completed, and there are various unresolved factual issues (see e.g. 1626 2nd Ave. LLC v National Speciality Ins. Co., Inc., 148 AD3d 529 [1st Dept 2017]; Brooks v Somerset Surgical Assoc., 106 AD3d 624 [1st Dept 2013]).

THIS CONSTITUTES THE DECISION AND ORDER

OF THE SUPREME COURT, APPELLATE DIVISION, FIRST DEPARTMENT.
