    Richard DeMunda, Individually and as Parent and Natural Guardian of Maria DeMunda, an Infant, Appellant, v Niagara Wheatfield Board of Education, Respondent.
    (Appeal No. 1.)
    [625 NYS2d 764]
   —Order unanimously affirmed without costs. Memorandum: Plaintiff appeals from an order that granted defendant’s motion for summary judgment dismissing the complaint. Plaintiff sought damages for injuries his daughter received when a fellow student struck her face during a brief fight while students were boarding a bus at her school.

The fight between plaintiff’s daughter and the student was a brief, spontaneous occurrence; there was no opportunity for defendant’s bus driver to intervene on the daughter’s behalf (see, Hanley v Hornbeck, 127 AD2d 905, 906-907; cf., Mirand v City of New York, 190 AD2d 282, affd 84 NY2d 44; Blair v Board of Educ., 86 AD2d 933). Although the school district had previously disciplined that student for fighting on the bus, those incidents had occurred over four months prior to this incident. Plaintiffs daughter had never reported any difficulties with the student, nor is there any indication in the record that the two had previously been involved in a fight (see, Mirand v City of New York, supra; James v Gloversville Enlarged School Dist. 155 AD2d 811, 813; see also, Hanley v Hornbeck, supra, at 907). Plaintiff has not identified any rules, procedures or security plans of the school district that were violated by the bus driver (see, Mirand v City of New York, supra, at 289-291; James v Gloversville Enlarged School Dist., supra, at 813; Lauricella v Board of Educ., 52 AD2d 710, 711). Furthermore, "[t]he courts of this State have consistently held that liability for injury caused by a fight cannot be predicated upon supervisory negligence if the plaintiff voluntarily entered into the fight [citations omitted]” (Borelli v Board of Educ., 156 AD2d 903, 904).
