BURDEN, HAFNER & HANSEN, LLC, BUFFALO (DONNA L. BURDEN OF COUNSEL), FOR DEFENDANT-APPELLANT.

THE JOY E. MISERENDINO LAW FIRM, P.C., ORCHARD PARK (JOY E. MISERENDINO OF COUNSEL), FOR PLAINTIFF-RESPONDENT.

PRESENT: WHALEN, P.J., SMITH, PERADOTTO, CURRAN, AND BANNISTER, JJ.

Appeal from an order of the Supreme Court, Erie County (Catherine R. Nugent Panepinto, J.), entered April 22, 2022. The order denied the motion of defendant to dismiss the complaint.

It is hereby ORDERED that the order so appealed from is unanimously affirmed without costs.

Memorandum: In this personal injury action arising from a motor vehicle accident, defendant moved to dismiss the complaint on the ground that plaintiff was required, and failed, to serve a notice of claim pursuant to General Municipal Law § 50-e (1) (b). Defendant appeals from an order that denied her motion. Contrary to defendant's contention, we conclude that Supreme Court did not abuse its discretion in denying the motion without prejudice to renew after limited discovery on the issue whether plaintiff was required to serve a notice of claim (see CPLR 3211 [d]; Gonzalez-Doldan v Kaleida Health, Inc., 160 A.D.3d 1384, 1384 [4th Dept 2018]; see generally Herzog v Town of Thompson, 216 A.D.2d 801, 803 [3d Dept 1995]).
