Quality Psychological Servs., P.C. v Utica Mut. Ins. Co.
Annotate this CaseDecided on February 1, 2013
SUPREME COURT, APPELLATE TERM, FIRST DEPARTMENT
PRESENT: Lowe, III, P.J., Schoenfeld, Hunter, Jr., JJ
570808/12.
Quality Psychological Services, P.C., a/a/o Marlon McLeod, Plaintiff-Respondent, - -
against
Utica Mutual Insurance Company, Defendant-Appellant.
Defendant appeals from an order of the Civil Court of the City of New York, Bronx County (Robert R. Reed, J.), entered April 18, 2011, which denied its motion for summary judgment dismissing the complaint.
Per Curiam.
Order (Robert R. Reed, J.), entered April 18, 2011, affirmed, with $10 costs.
We sustain the denial of defendant's motion for summary judgment dismissing this first-party no-fault action. Defendant's June 26, 2008 request for additional verification in the form of an examination under oath (EUO) of the plaintiff medical provider was untimely and did not serve to toll defendant's time to pay or deny the claim, since the request was made well beyond the requisite 15-day time period following the assignor's EUO (see 11 NYCRR 65-3.5[b]; 65—3.8[a][1]; see Kingsbrook Jewish Med. Ctr. v Allstate Ins. Co., 61 AD3d 13, 17-18 [2009]).
THIS CONSTITUTES THE DECISION AND ORDER OF THE COURT.
