2019-1661 K C
against
Global Liberty Insurance, Appellant.
Law Office of Jason Tenenbaum, P.C. (Jason Tenenbaum and Shaaker Bhuiyan of counsel), for appellant. The Rybak Firm, PLLC (Damin J. Toell and Karina Barska of counsel), for respondent.
Appeal from a judgment of the Civil Court of the City of New York, Kings County (Cenceria P. Edwards, J.), entered March 27, 2019. The judgment, entered upon a decision of that court dated February 21, 2019, after a nonjury trial, awarded plaintiff the principal sum of $2,807.40.
ORDERED that, on the court’s own motion, the notice of appeal from the decision dated February 21, 2019 is deemed a premature notice of appeal from the judgment entered March 27, 2019 (see CPLR 5520 [c]); and it is further,
ORDERED that the judgment is affirmed, with $25 costs.
In this action by a provider to recover assigned first-party no-fault benefits, defendant appeals from a judgment, after a nonjury trial, awarding plaintiff the principal sum of $2,807.40. At the outset of the trial, the parties stipulated that the sole issue for trial would be the application of the workers’ compensation fee schedule, and that the instant action would be consolidated for trial with two other actions involving the same provider and insurer. Following the trial, the Civil Court found in favor of plaintiff.
For the reasons stated in Ksenia Pavlova, D.O., as Assignee of David Wright v Global Liberty Ins. (— Misc 3d &mdash, 2021 NY Slip Op — [appeal No. 2019-1634 K C], decided herewith), the judgment is affirmed.
ALIOTTA, P.J., and GOLIA, J., concur.
ELLIOT, J., taking part.
