In opposition, plaintiff submitted evidence based on personal knowledge supporting its claim of defects in the work and other claimed breaches of the construction contract, thereby creating issues of fact. Plaintiff‘s claim against the contractor is not barred by law of the case (cf. Matter of East 51st St. Crane Collapse Litig., 114 AD3d 611 [1st Dept 2014]).
