Summary

Editorial summary by Beynenson Law, not part of the court’s decision.

The provider's challenges to MVAIC's summary judgment motion were unpreserved because they were raised for the first time on appeal. The provider appealed from an order granting MVAIC summary judgment dismissing its action for assigned first-party no-fault benefits. The Appellate Term, Second Department, declined to consider any of the provider's arguments for denying the motion, following Joe v Upper Room Ministries, Inc. and Gulf Ins. Co. v Kanen. It affirmed the order dismissing the complaint in MVAIC's favor.

2016-2707 K C

Right Aid Medical Supply Corp., as Assignee of Bell, Lamont, Appellant,

against

MVAIC, Respondent.


The Rybak Firm, PLLC (Damin J. Toell of counsel), for appellant. Marshall & Marshall, PLLC (Barbara Carabell of counsel), for respondent.

Appeal from an order of the Civil Court of the City of New York, Kings County (Richard J. Montelione, J.), entered September 12, 2016. The order granted defendant’s motion for summary judgment dismissing the complaint.

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 a motion by defendant Motor Vehicle Accident Indemnification Corporation (sued herein as MVAIC) for summary judgment dismissing the complaint.

All of plaintiff’s arguments as to why defendant’s motion for summary judgment should have been denied are not properly before this court, since they are being raised for the first time on appeal, and we decline to consider them (see Joe v Upper Room Ministries, Inc., 88 AD3d 963 [2011]; Gulf Ins. Co. v Kanen, 13 AD3d 579 [2004]). Accordingly, the order is affirmed.

PESCE, P.J., ALIOTTA and SIEGAL, JJ., concur.
