Plaintiff appeals from an order of the Civil Court of the City of New York, New York County (Anil C. Singh, J.), entered November 1, 2005, which denied his motion for partial summary judgment.
PER CURIAM:
Order (Anil C. Singh, J.), entered November 1, 2005, reversed, with $10 costs, and plaintiff's motion for partial summary judgment in the principal sum of $1,617.60 granted.The Clerk is directed to enter judgment accordingly.
Plaintiff established a prima facie entitlement to partial summary judgment in the sum of $1,617.60, by submitting evidentiary proof that the prescribed statutory billing forms had been mailed and received, and that payment of no-fault benefits was overdue (see Insurance Law § 5106 [a]; Mary Immaculate Hosp. v Allstate Ins. Co., 5 AD3d 742 [2004]). In opposition, defendant failed to raise a triable issue of fact. The unsworn chiropractor's report submitted by defendant in support of its defense of lack of medical necessity was not in admissible form (see CPLR 2106), a defect which requires its exclusion from consideration (see Shinn v Catanzaro, 1 AD3d 195, 197 [2003]).
This constitutes the decision and order of the court.
