<br><br>against<br><br>Tri State Consumers Ins. Co., Respondent.</font></b></div><br><br> 

 

 

 

<p>Appeal from an order of the Civil Court of the City of New York, Queens County (William A. Viscovich, J.), entered June 28, 2013. The order granted defendant's motion for summary judgment dismissing the complaint.</p> 

 

 

 

 

<p>ORDERED that the order is affirmed, with $25 costs.</p> 

<p>In this action by a provider to recover assigned first-party no-fault benefits, defendant moved for summary judgment dismissing the complaint, arguing that it had fully paid plaintiff in accordance with the workers' compensation fee schedule. The Civil Court granted defendant's motion.</p> 

<p>Plaintiff's argument
lacks merit (<i>see A.B. Med. Servs., PLLC v Liberty Mut. Ins. Co.</i>, 39 AD3d 779 [2007]). To the extent plaintiff seeks to challenge defendant's calculation of the amount plaintiff was entitled to recover pursuant to the workers' compensation fee schedule, this argument is not properly before this court as it is being raised for the first time on appeal, and we decline to consider it (<i>see Joe v Upper Room Ministries, Inc.</i>, 88 AD3d 963 [2011]; <i>Gulf Ins. Co. v Kanen</i>, 13 AD3d 579 [2004]). Consequently, plaintiff has demonstrated no basis to disturb the order.</p> 

<p>Accordingly, the order is affirmed.</p> 

<p>Pesce, P.J., Aliotta and Solomon, JJ., concur.</p>
