STELLA KOMSA, Respondent, v. COLONIAL PENN INSURANCE COMPANY, c/o MATERIAL DAMAGE ADJUSTMENT CORP., et al., Appellants, and MOTOR VEHICLE ACCIDENT INDEMNIFICATION CORPORATION, Respondent.

Within half an hour of an alleged hit-and-run accident in which the plaintiff was struck by a 1971 Chevolet Monte Carlo, a police accident report was filed describing, inter alia, the approximate color and the license plate number of the Gonzalez vehicle. Although the eyewitness to the incident was not identified and the reporting police officer did not appear at the subsequent hearing, counsel consented to the entry into evidence of the report. In the absence of timely objection, the evidence is presumed to have been unobjectionable and any error considered waived. (See, CPLR 4017; Horton v Smith, 51 N.Y.2d 798, 799; 4 Weinstein-Korn-Miller, N Y Civ Prac ¶ 4017.05.) Further, the totality of the evidence adduced at the hearing supports the Hearing Officer's findings.

Concur — Milonas, J.P., Wallach, Asch and Rubin, JJ.
