Mealey's (November 1, 2019, 2:15 PM EDT) -- NEW YORK — A federal judge in New York on Oct. 25 dismissed a lawsuit brought by Allstate Insurance Co. and its affiliates against a New Jersey ambulatory services provider accused of submitting fraudulent bills for reimbursement under New York’s no-fault insurance law, holding that the fact that New York residents were treated at the facility and that bills were sent to the insurer’s New York office does not provide the basis for jurisdiction (Allstate Insurance Co., et al. v. Sangwoo Mah, et al., No. 19-cv-2866, E.D. N.Y., 2019 U.S. Dist. LEXIS 185748)....
