¶1—In an action to recover damages for medical malpractice, the plaintiffs appeal from so much of an order of the Supreme Court, Kings County (Bellard, J.), entered October 5, 1998, as denied their motion to strike the defendants’ answers and/or defenses, or to preclude the defendants from presenting certain evidence at trial.
¶2Ordered that the order is affirmed insofar as appealed from, with one bill of costs.
¶3The Supreme Court properly denied the motion, inter alia, to strike the defendants’ answers, as there was no clear showing that their failure to comply with discovery was willful, contumacious, or in bad faith (see, CPLR 3126). Instead, it appears that they made good-faith efforts to comply with all discovery requests (see, Garcia v First Spanish Baptist Church, 259 AD2d 465; First Bank v Motor Car Funding, 257 AD2d 287; Brennan v McCarthy, 255 AD2d 477).
¶4In addition, the record fails to disclose any prejudice to the plaintiffs from the defendants’ failure to timely comply with the prior court orders (see, Selamaj v City of New York, 257 AD2d 616; Thomas v McGuire Serv. Corp., 251 AD2d 148).
¶5The plaintiffs’ remaining contentions are without merit. Mangano, P. J., Santucci, Krausman, Florio and H. Miller, JJ., concur.
