Court of Appeals of New York
Briggs Ave. LLC v. Ins. Corp. of Hannover, 163
In a declaratory-judgment action seeking to compel defendant-insurer to defend a personal-injury action brought against plaintiff-insured, upon a question certified by the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit, the court answers that a liability insurer is entitled to disclaim coverage when the insured, because of its own error in failing to update the address it had listed with the Secretary of State, did not comply with a policy condition requiring timely notice of a lawsuit.
