Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of the State of New York March 16, 1998 (Jimenez v. Regan)

—In an action to recover damages for personal injuries, the plaintiff appeals from an order of the Supreme Court, Kings County (Huttner, J.), dated February 5, 1997, which, after a framed issue hearing to determine whether the offending vehicle was operated with the permission of its owner, dismissed the complaint insofar as asserted against the defendant Avelino Casas.
