DECISION ORDER
ORDERED that the appeal from the order dated December 20, 2001, is dismissed; and it is further,
ORDERED that the appeal from the judgment entered January 9, 2002, is dismissed, as that judgment was superseded by the order dated March 15, 2002, made upon renewal; and it is further,
ORDERED that the order dated March 15, 2002, is reversed insofar as appealed from, on the law, upon renewal, the motion is denied, and the judgment entered January 9, 2002, and the order dated December 20, 2001, are vacated; and it is further,
ORDERED that one bill of costs is awarded to the defendant.
The appeal from the intermediate order must be dismissed because the right of direct appeal therefrom terminated with the entry of judgment in the action (see Matter of Aho, 39 N.Y.2d 241, 248). The issues raised on the appeal from the order are brought up for review and have been considered on the appeal from the judgment and the order entered upon renewal (see CPLR 5501[a][1]).
The plaintiff St. Luke's Roosevelt Hospital made a prima facie showing of entitlement to judgment as a matter of law, offering sufficient evidence to demonstrate the absence of a triable issue of fact (see Insurance Law § 5106[a]; 11 NYCRR 65.15 [g][3]; Central Gen. Hosp. v. Chubb Group of Ins. Cos., 90 N.Y.2d 195; Alvarez v. Prospect Hosp., 68 N.Y.2d 320; Mount Sinai Hosp. v. Triboro Coach, 263 A.D.2d 11).
However, the affidavits of the defendant's insured and an eyewitness submitted upon renewal were sufficient to raise an issue of fact as to whether the defendant's denial of coverage was "premised on the fact or founded belief that the alleged injury does not arise out of an insured incident" (Central Gen. Hosp. v. Chubb Group of Ins. Cos., supra at 199; see Alvarez v. Prospect Hosp., supra). The fact that the insured's affidavit may be equivocal involves a determination of credibility which is not properly made upon a motion for summary judgment (see Scott v. Long Is. Power Auth., 294 A.D.2d 348).
