47 A.D.2d 500 (1975)

Christala Koutrakos, Individually and as Administratrix of The Estate of James Koutrakos, Deceased, Respondent, v. Long Island College Hospital et al., Defendants; Great American Insurance Company, Appellant

Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of the State of New York, Second Department.

May 5, 1975


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Linden & Gallagher (Leonard J. Linden of counsel), for appellant.

Ira J. Raab for respondent.

MARTUSCELLO, Acting P. J., LATHAM, COHALAN and CHRIST, JJ., concur.


SHAPIRO, J.

The lienor-appellant, Great American Insurance Company, appeals from so much of an order as set its lien at less than the amount of the workmen's compensation benefits award paid by it to the plaintiff. We hold this to be error and accordingly modify the order by granting the appellant a lien for the full amount of the benefits paid by it.
