New York Court of Appeals

American Transit Insurance Company, Appellant v. Anthony Sartor, Respondent, Defendants

July 1, 20043 N.Y.3d 71

Summary

The New York Court of Appeals held that Vehicle and Traffic Law § 370 does not eliminate the insurer’s right to receive notice of litigation, and therefore American Transit Insurance properly disclaimed coverage of the default judgment because it was not notified of the lawsuit.
