Opinion
Order unanimously reversed on the law with costs, motion denied and complaint reinstated. Memorandum: Supreme Court erred in resolving issues of credibility in granting defendants’ motion for summary judgment dismissing the complaint (see, Mickelson v Babcock, 190 AD2d 1037; see generally, Black v Chittenden, 69 NY2d 665, 669; Capelin Assocs. v Globe Mfg. Corp., 34 NY2d 338, 341). Any inconsistencies between the deposition testimony of plaintiffs and their affidavits submitted in opposition to the motion present credibility issues for trial (see, Schoen v Rochester Gas & Elec., 242 AD2d 928; Mickelson v Babcock, supra). (Appeal from Order of Supreme Court, Oneida County, Grow, J. — Summary Judgment.) Present — Pigott, Jr., P. J., Green, Pine, Kehoe and Balio, JJ.
