Ameriprise Ins. Co. v Kensington Radiology Group, P.C., 2017 NY Slip Op 51911(U) (App. Term 1st Dept. 2017)
“Here, petitioner-insurer’s submissions in support of its petition to vacate the arbitration award – including an attorney’s affirmation, the policy declaration page showing the $50,000 limit and a payment ledger listing in chronological order the dates the claims by various providers were received and paid – raised triable issues as to whether the $50,000 policy limit had been exhausted by payments of no fault benefits to respondent and other providers before petitioner became obligated to pay the claims at issue here (see Allstate Prop. & Cas. Ins. Co. v Northeast Anesthesia & Pain Mgt., 51 Misc 3d 149[A], 2016 NY Slip Op 50828[U] [App Term, 1st Dept 2016]; Allstate Ins. Co. v DeMoura, 30 Misc 3d 145[A], 2011 NY Slip Op 50430[U] [App Term, [*2]1st Dept 2011]). Therefore, we remand the matter to Civil Court for a framed issue hearing on that issue.”
This looks like pure priority of payment, which does not look good,
