IN RE GARCIA v. STATE FARM INSURANCE COMPANY

Ordered that the order is reversed, on the law, with costs, and the application is denied.

As a condition precedent to payment of underinsurance, "the limits of liability of all bodily injury liability bonds or insurance policies applicable at the time of the accident shall be exhausted by payment of judgments or settlements" (Insurance Law § 3420 [f] [2]). Here, the petitioner failed to establish that she exhausted all insurance policies covering the offending vehicle. Accordingly, the Supreme Court should have denied the application to compel arbitration.
