DECISION ORDER
ORDERED that the judgment is affirmed, without costs or disbursements.
The Court of Claims properly granted the defendant's motion to dismiss the claim for lack of jurisdiction since the claimant failed to serve the Attorney-General of the State of New York pursuant to Court of Claims Act § 11 ( see Finnerty v. New York State Thruway Auth., 75 N.Y.2d 721, 723; Pagano v. New York State Thruway Auth., 235 A.D.2d 408).
The claimant's contentions regarding permission to treat his notice of intention as a claim is not properly before this court, as the claimant failed to apply to the Court of Claims for such permission ( see Court of Claims Act § 10[a]; Calderazzo v. State of New York, 74 A.D.2d 954).
RITTER, J.P., SMITH, H. MILLER and CRANE, JJ., concur.
