HDI-Gerling America Insurance Co. v. Zurich American Insurance Co.

Opinion

Orders, Supreme Court, New York County (Anil C. Singh, J.), entered May 21, 2015, which, inter alia, declared that defendant Zurich American Insurance Company’s policy is excess to plaintiff HDI-Gerling’s policy, unanimously affirmed, with costs.

In this action to determine priority of coverage, the IAS court correctly found that Zurich’s other insured endorsement rendered its policy excess to HDI-Gerling America Insurance Company’s policy (see e.g. County of Columbia v Continental Ins. Co., 83 NY2d 618, 628 [1994]).

Concur — Tom, J.R, Sweeny, Renwick, Moskowitz and Kapnick, JJ.
