Description
[67 N.Y.2d 219 Page 221] Opinion OF THE COURT Plaintiff, Joseph Dermatossian,1 recovered a judgment, following a jury verdict, for injuries allegedly sustained on May 5, 1980 when he struck his head on a defective2 grab handle as he stood up to leave defendant's bus. Although no proof of actual negligence was adduced, the court, over defendant's objection, submitted the case to the jury on the theory of res ipsa loquitur. The defense was that no accident had occurred on defendant's bus and that plaintiff must have hurt himself elsewhere. The Appellate Division affirmed, without opinion, and we granted leave to appeal.
