Arbitration, Insurance Law

RESPONDENT’S FAILURE TO ATTEND INDEPENDENT MEDICAL EXAMS RENDERED THE NO-FAULT INSURANCE POLICY VOID AB INITIO (FIRST DEPT).

The First Department, vacating the arbitrator’s award, determined the no-fault policy was void because respondent failed to attend independent medical examinations:

The master arbitrator’s award was arbitrary in that it irrationally ignored well-established precedent that “the no-fault policy issued by petitioner was void ab initio due to respondent’s assignor’s failure to attend duly scheduled independent medical exams” … . Matter of Global Liberty Ins. Co. of N.Y. v Capital Chiropractic, P.C., 2020 NY Slip Op 01466, First Dept 3-3-20
