Decided December 17, 2013.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

OPINION OF THE COURT

MEMORANDUM.

The order of the Appellate Division should be affirmed, with costs, and the certified question answered in the affirmative.

This action was not settled because the general release and the hold harmless agreement were never delivered to defendant, nor was the acceptance of the settlement offer otherwise communicated to defendant or its carrier (see White v Corlies, 46 N.Y. 467, 469 [1871]).
