GUY JAMES MANGANO, P.J., FRED T. SANTUCCI, GABRIEL M. KRAUSMAN, ANITA R. FLORIO, HOWARD MILLER, JJ.


DECISION ORDER

ORDERED that the order is affirmed, with costs.

The Supreme Court properly determined that the provisions of the contract at issue are clear and unambiguous and that in accordance with the plain language of the contract, the plaintiffs failure to timely submit billing vouchers precluded it from receiving the reimbursement it sought ( see, Matter of Wallace v. 600 Partners Co., 86 N.Y.2d 543, 548; Automotive Mgt. Group v. SRB Mgt. Co., 239 A.D.2d 450, 451).
