L'Abbate, Balkan, Colavita & Contini, L.L.P., New York City (Tomas B. Lim of counsel), for Bock Water Heaters, Inc., respondent.

Before: Chief Judge KAYE and Judges G.B. SMITH, CIPARICK, ROSENBLATT, GRAFFEO, READ and R.S. SMITH concur.


OPINION OF THE COURT

MEMORANDUM.

The order of the Appellate Division should be affirmed, with costs.

We agree with the Appellate Division majority that defendants Bock Water Heaters, Inc. and Honeywell, Inc. made a prima facie showing of entitlement to judgment as a matter of law dismissing the complaint insofar as asserted against them. Plaintiffs have failed to raise a triable issue of fact in opposition to defendants' motions.
