2013-2435 K C

Longevity Medical Supply, Inc. as Assignee of ANA CABRAL, Appellant,

against

Allstate Insurance Company, Respondent.


Appeal from an order of the Civil Court of the City of New York, Kings County (Wavny Toussaint, J.), entered September 5, 2013. The order, insofar as appealed from and as limited by the brief, denied plaintiff's motion for summary judgment.

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, plaintiff appeals, as limited by its brief, from so much of an order as denied its motion for summary judgment. The Civil Court determined that defendant had established that it had timely mailed requests for additional verification, and found that the only issue for trial is whether plaintiff had served responses to defendant's verification requests.

The record shows that the Civil Court considered both defendant's proof that defendant had not received requested verification from plaintiff and an affidavit from plaintiff which asserts that material responsive to the verification requests had been sent to defendant. Thus, plaintiff failed to establish the absence of a material issue of fact. As a result, the Civil Court properly determined that plaintiff was not entitled to summary judgment. Plaintiff's remaining contentions lack merit.

Accordingly, the order, insofar as appealed from, is affirmed.

Pesce, P.J., Solomon and Elliot, JJ., concur.
