Opinion of the Court

PER CURIAM.

This is an appeal by the plaintiff from an adverse final summary judgment entered in a wrongful death action arising out of a fatal slip and fall accident. We reverse the final summary judgment under review upon a holding that genuine issues of material fact exist on this record as to (1) whether the plaintiffs decedent slipped and fell on a pool of water near the elevator of the defendant condominium’s premises, and (2) whether defendant had knowledge of this pool as evidenced by a “wet floor” sign apparently positioned in the general area of the subject slip and fall immediately before the accident.
