Appeal from an order of the Civil Court of the City of New York, Queens County
(William A. Viscovich, J.), entered September 21, 2011, deemed from a judgment of the
same court entered November 29, 2011 (see CPLR 5501 [c]). The judgment, entered
pursuant to the September 21, 2011 order granting defendant's motion for summary
judgment, dismissed the complaint.
ORDERED that the judgment is affirmed, with $25 costs.
In this action by a provider to recover assigned first-party no-fault benefits, plaintiff appeals from an order of the Civil Court which granted defendant's motion for summary judgment dismissing the complaint. A judgment was subsequently entered, from which the appeal is deemed to have been taken (see CPLR 5501 [c]).
Upon a review of the record, we find that defendant established, prima facie, that it had paid the claim at issue, and that plaintiff has failed to raise a triable issue of fact.
Accordingly, the judgment is affirmed.
Pesce, P.J., Aliotta and Solomon, JJ., concur.
