FREMONT REAL. v. ZURICH
Ordered that the order is affirmed insofar as appealed from, with costs.
On its motion for summary judgment dismissing the complaint insofar as asserted against it, the defendant Zurich American Insurance Co. (hereinafter Zurich), which had issued a particular insurance policy to the plaintiff, demonstrated its entitlement to judgment as a matter of law by submitting evidence establishing, inter alia, that it had no duty to advise the plaintiff to obtain certain additional insurance coverage ( see Chaim v Benedict, 216 AD2d 347; Erwig v Cook Agency, 173 AD2d 439). Since, in response to this showing, the plaintiff failed to raise a triable issue of fact ( see Alvarez v Prospect Hosp., 68 NY2d 320, 324), the Supreme Court correctly granted that branch of Zurich's motion which was for summary judgment dismissing the complaint insofar as asserted against it.
