Opinion
April 8, 1985
Appeal from the Supreme Court, Kings County (Leone, J.).
Order affirmed, with costs.
The claimants have demonstrated that they have met the prerequisites of CPLR 901 for the maintenance of a class action ( see, e.g., Hoerger v. Board of Educ., 98 A.D.2d 274, 283). Nothing in the Insurance Law prevents this claim from being pursued as a class action; moreover, Insurance Law former § 543 (now Insurance Law § 7432) has been satisfied by the filing of a notice of claim on behalf of the class ( see, Hoerger v. Board of Educ., supra, pp 280-281). O'Connor, J.P., Rubin, Lawrence and Eiber, JJ., concur.
