DECISION ORDER ON MOTION Plaintiff’s motion for summary judgment is denied. Background Plaintiff contends that it entered into an agreement with defendant Ross Metals Corporation (“Ross Metals”) wherein it was to provide jewelry materials.

Plaintiff also includes invoices that it claims show that defendants failed to pay for the shipments it sent. In opposition, Angel Ross claims that it is his practice to pay for goods after they are delivered and acknowledges that his company, Ross Metals, purchased goods from plaintiff for many years (NYSCEF Doc.

Mr. Ross insists he promptly objected to those invoices after he received them (id.). He claims that “In January 2022, I discussed this issue with Plaintiff. I informed them that I was not going to pay these amounts without proof of delivery” and that “As I have stated to Plaintiff on numerous occasions, if they can show that the products I ordered were actually delivered to me, I will pay for them” (id.
