Appeal from an order of the Civil Court of the City of New York, Kings County (Nicholas W. Moyne, J.), dated February 25, 2021. The order granted defendant's motion for summary judgment dismissing the complaint and denied plaintiff's cross motion for summary judgment.
ORDERED that the order is affirmed, with $25 costs.
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 and denied plaintiff's cross motion for summary judgment.
In support of its motion, defendant submitted an affidavit and documentary evidence which established, prima facie, its lack of coverage defense (see Tam Med. Supply Corp. v Omni Indem. Co., 48 Misc.3d 142 [A], 2015 NY Slip Op 51294[U] [App Term, 2d Dept, 2d, 11th & 13th Jud Dists 2015]; Delta Diagnostic Radiology, P.C. v American Tr. Ins. Co., 44 Misc.3d 136 [A], 2014 NY Slip Op 51240[U] [App Term, 2d Dept, 2d, 11th & 13th Jud Dists 2014]; Vincent Med. Servs., P.C. v Omni Indem. Co., 42 Misc.3d 142 [A], 2014 NY Slip Op 50224[U] [App Term, 2d Dept, 2d, 11th & 13th Jud Dists 2014]; Great Health Care Chiropractic, P.C. v Omni Indem. Co., 40 Misc.3d 139 [A], 2013 NY Slip Op 51450[U] [App Term, 2d Dept, 2d, 11th & 13th Jud Dists 2013]). As plaintiff failed to demonstrate the existence of a triable issue of fact, the Civil Court properly granted defendant's motion for summary judgment dismissing the complaint and denied plaintiff's cross motion for summary judgment.
Accordingly, the order is affirmed.
ALIOTTA, P.J., GOLIA and BUGGS, JJ., concur.
