¶1The appellants met their prima facie burden of showing that the plaintiff did not sustain a serious injury within the meaning of Insurance Law § 5102 (d) as a result of the subject accident (see Toure v Avis Rent A Car Sys., 98 NY2d 345 [2002]; Gaddy v Eyler, 79 NY2d 955, 956-957 [1992]). The plaintiff alleged, inter alia, that the cervical region of his spine sustained certain injuries as a result of the subject accident. The appellants established, prima facie, inter alia, that those alleged injuries were not caused by the subject accident (see Pommells v Perez, 4 NY3d 566, 579 [2005]; Jilani v Palmer, 83 AD3d 786, 787 [2011]).
¶2In opposition to the appellants’ motion the plaintiff submitted competent medical evidence raising a triable issue of fact as to whether the alleged injuries to the cervical region of his spine were caused by the accident (see Jaramillo v Lobo, 32 AD3d 417 [2006]). Accordingly, the Supreme Court properly denied the appellants’ motion for summary judgment dismissing the complaint insofar as asserted against them. Dillon, J.P., Dickerson, Leventhal, Austin and Miller, JJ., concur.
