against

Tri State Consumers Ins. Co., Respondent.

Appeal from an order of the Civil Court of the City of New York, Queens County (Jodi Orlow, J.), entered February 5, 2014. The order granted defendant's motion for summary judgment dismissing the complaint.

ORDERED that the order is reversed, with $30 costs, and defendant's motion for summary judgment dismissing the complaint is denied.

In this action by a provider to recover assigned first-party no-fault benefits, plaintiff appeals from an order of the Civil Court which granted defendant's motion for summary judgment dismissing the complaint on the ground that the action was premature because plaintiff had failed to provide requested verification.

For the reasons stated in Performance Plus Med., P.C., as Assignee of Melanna Luckie v Nationwide Ins. (___ Misc 3d ___, 2016 NY Slip Op _____ [appeal No. 2013-2766 Q C], decided herewith), the order is reversed and defendant's motion for summary judgment dismissing the complaint is denied.
