On review of submissions pursuant to rule 500.2 (b) of the Rules of the Court of Appeals (22 NYCRR 500.2 [g]), order affirmed, without costs. We agree that, as a matter of law, insufficient time had elapsed after the end of this heavy storm to hold the city liable for failure to clear the sidewalks of snow and ice.
