Hollander Legal Group, P.C. (Allan S. Hollander of counsel), for appellant. The Rybak Firm, PLLC (Damin J. Toell of counsel), for respondent.
Appeal from an order of the Civil Court of the City of New York, Kings County (Odessa Kennedy, J.), entered December 6, 2018. The order, insofar as appealed from and as limited by the brief, denied defendant's motion for summary judgment dismissing the complaint.
ORDERED that the order, insofar as appealed from, is affirmed, with $25 costs.
In this action by a provider to recover assigned first-party no-fault benefits, defendant moved for summary judgment dismissing the complaint on the ground that plaintiff had failed to appear for duly scheduled examinations under oath, and plaintiff cross-moved for summary judgment. By order entered December 6, 2018, the Civil Court denied the motion and cross motion but found, pursuant to CPLR 3212 (g), that the claims at issue were mailed by plaintiff and received by defendant. Defendant appeals, as limited by its brief, from so much of the order as denied its motion for summary judgment.
For the reasons stated in Allay Med. Servs., P.C., as Assignee of Bright, Sayquan U v Nationwide Ins. (___ Misc 3d ___, 2021 NY Slip Op ______ [appeal No. 2019-118 K C], decided herewith), the order, insofar as appealed from, is affirmed.
ALIOTTA, P.J., TOUSSAINT and GOLIA, JJ., concur.
