PRAVEL, INC., as Assignee of Mirlande, Severe, Appellant, v. AMERIPRISE AUTO & HOME, Respondent.
Appeal from an order of the Civil Court of the City of New York, Kings County (Robin Kelly Sheares, J.), entered April 13, 2016. The order, insofar as appealed from, granted the branch of defendant's motion seeking summary judgment dismissing the second cause of action.
ORDERED that the order, insofar as appealed from, is affirmed, with $25 costs.
In this action by a provider to recover assigned first-party no-fault benefits, plaintiff appeals from so much of an order of the Civil Court as granted the branch of defendant's motion seeking summary judgment dismissing the second cause of action on the ground that plaintiff had failed to appear for duly scheduled examinations under oath (EUOs).
Contrary to plaintiff's arguments, defendant's proof sufficiently established the proper mailing of the EUO scheduling letters (see St. Vincent's Hosp. of Richmond v. Government Empls. Ins. Co., 50 AD3d 1123 [2008] ) and that plaintiff had failed to appear for the scheduled EUOs (see Stephen Fogel Psychological, P.C. v. Progressive Cas. Ins. Co., 35 AD3d 720 [2006] ).
Accordingly, the order, insofar as appealed from, is affirmed.
PESCE, P.J., ALIOTTA and ELLIOT, JJ., concur.
