DECISION ORDER
ORDERED that the order is reversed insofar as appealed from, with costs, that branch of the defendant's motion which was for summary judgment dismissing the claim to recover damages for economic loss in excess of basic economic loss within the meaning of Insurance Law § 5104 is granted, and the complaint is dismissed in its entirety.
Pursuant to Insurance Law § 5104(a), a plaintiff seeking to recover damages for economic loss arising from a motor vehicle accident must plead and prove economic loss greater than basic economic loss ( see CPLR 3016[g]; Acerra v. Gutmann, 294 A.D.2d 384; Rulison v. Zanella, 119 A.D.2d 957). Here, the plaintiff failed to plead a claim for economic loss in the complaint, and neither amended nor sought leave to amend the complaint to add such a claim. Moreover, the plaintiff failed to produce any evidence in admissible form which supports such a claim.
