Objective justification not necessary

If you were injured due to someone else’s careless actions, we understand the challenges you may be facing. As a victim or a surviving family member, you could be dealing with the life-altering consequences of a serious accident.

Longevity Med. Supply, Inc. v Praetorian Ins. Co., 2015 NY Slip Op 50685(U)(App. Term 2d Dept. 2015)

“An appearance at an EUO “is a condition precedent to the insurer’s liability on the policy” (Stephen Fogel Psychological, P.C., 35 AD3d at 722). Contrary to the determination of the District Court, no provision of No-Fault Regulation 68 requires an insurer to set forth any objective standards for requesting an EUO (see Flow Chiropractic, P.C. v Travelers Home & Mar. Ins. Co., 44 Misc 3d 132[A], 2014 NY Slip Op 51142[U] [App Term, 9th & 10th Jud Dists 2014]). As plaintiff does not allege, let alone establish, that it or its assignor responded in any way to defendant’s EUO requests at issue, plaintiff’s objections regarding the EUO requests [*2]will not now be heard (see Crescent Radiology, PLLC v American Tr. Ins. Co., 31 Misc 3d 134[A], 2011 NY Slip Op 50622[U] [App Term, 9th & 10th Jud Dists 2011]).”

This is an open issue as of now.
