Description

The plaintiff's beauty parlor was covered by standard fire insurance policies issued by the five defendant companies. The premises were partially destroyed by fire on November 26, 1962 but it was not until February 7, 1964 that he brought this action to recover damages caused by the blaze. He had filed proofs of loss in May of 1963, following the defendants' demand, two months earlier, that he do so. The defendants moved, pursuant to CPLR 3211 (subd. [a], par. 5), to dismiss the complaint on the ground that suit had not been commenced, as prescribed by the policies, ""within twelve months next after inception of the loss"". The Appellate Division, reversing the court at Special Term, granted the motion and the plaintiff appeals.
