At the time of the accident, Plaintiff National Indemnity Company insured a 2003 tour bus owned and operated by Hua Mai Express, Inc. r- -b 3. The policy of insurance from National Indemnity Company covering the Hua Mai Express, Inc. bus was a Georgia Insurance policy. 4.

These first-party medical and wage loss payments were paid under New York Motor Vehicle No-Fault Insurance Law. 5. There was no legal basis for Plaintiff National Indemnity Company to have paid any New York no-fault or first-party benefits as a result of this accident. 6.

Pennsylvania does not permit subrogation of first-party (PIP) payments. 75 Pa. C.S.A. §1720. 8. Any payments made by the Plaintiff under New York no-fault or first-party (PIP) law were voluntary payments and are not legally recoverable in this case. 2 ` a 9. The Honorable Kevin A.
