Appellate Term, Second Department
- Merced v GEICO Ins. Agency, LLC2026 NY Slip Op 51311[U]
The court affirmed the dismissal of the complaint against the insurer because there is no privity of contract between the injured plaintiff and the tortfeasor’s insurer. Consequently, the plaintiff failed to state a cause of action as the statutory conditions for suing the insurer under Insurance Law § 3420 were not met.
