Court of Appeals of New York


Cividanes v. City of New York, 230

In plaintiff's suit against the City of New York for sustaining injuries to her ankle when she stepped off the bus and fell into a hole, the judgment of the Appellate Division is affirmed where the court properly held that the No-Fault Insurance Law is inapplicable because plaintiff's injury did not arise out of the "use or operation" of a motor vehicle, because the "use of operation" of the bus was neither a "proximate cause" nor an "instrumentality" that produced plaintiff's injury.
