21st Century Insurance v. Davis

In a proceeding pursuant to CPLR article 75 to permanently stay arbitration of a claim for uninsured motorist benefits, proposed additional respondent Permanent General Assurance Corp. appeals from a decision of the Supreme Court, Kings County (Archer, Ct. Atty. Ref.), dated February 22, 2012, made after a framed-issue hearing.

Ordered that the appeal is dismissed, with costs.

The paper from which the proposed additional respondent Permanent General Assurance Corp. appeals is merely a decision, as the paper did not grant or deny the petition or dispose of the proceeding. No appeal lies from a decision (see Matter of AutoOne Ins. Co. v Fernandez, 109 AD3d 469 [2013]; Benabu v Rienzo, 104 AD3d 714 , 714 [2013]; Wall St. Mtge. Bankers, Ltd. v Hinds, 81 AD3d 818 , 818 [2011]; Hamilton v Khalife, 2 AD3d 682 , 682 [2003]; Matter of Diamond v Gallagher, 291 AD2d 404 , 405 [2002]; Schicchi v J.A. Green Constr. Corp., 100 AD2d 509 , 509-510 [1984]) and, thus, the appeal must be dismissed. Mastro, J.E, Dickerson, Lott and Hinds-Radix, JJ., concur.
