2011-1818 N C.

Lenox Hill Hospital as Assignee of EDUARDO MARRERO and MOUNT SINAI HOSPITAL as Assignee of GREGORY BAR, Appellants,

against

Allstate Insurance Company, Respondent.

Appeal from an order of the District Court of Nassau County, First District (Fred J. Hirsh, J.), dated May 3, 2011. The order denied plaintiffs' motion for summary judgment.

ORDERED that the order is affirmed, without costs.

In this action by providers to recover assigned first-party no-fault benefits, the District Court properly denied plaintiffs' motion for summary judgment on the ground that plaintiffs had not demonstrated their prima facie entitlement to judgment as a matter of law (see New York Hosp. Med. Ctr. of Queens v Statewide Ins. Co., 33 Misc 3d 130[A], 2011 NY Slip Op 51863[U] [App Term, 9th & 10th Jud Dists 2011]).

Accordingly, the order is affirmed.

LaCava, J.P., Nicolai and LaSalle, JJ., concur. [*2]
