Plaintiff alleged violations of NYS Labor Law Sections 200, 240 (1) and 241(6), as well as general negligence claims arising out of a fall at a construction site. Rebecca argued that plaintiff’s actions were the sole proximate cause of his injuries and, further, that as a subcontractor who did not direct or control the means and methods of plaintiff’s work, the client could not be held liable under the NYS Labor Law. The Judge dismissed all of plaintiff’s claims as well as cross claims asserted against the client.
Great work, Rebecca!
