2 • Queens Daily Eagle • Monday, November 4, 2019 ‘Reparations’ at The Billie is ‘a provocative examination of race in America’ Brooklyn Eagle Staff A new play about the ripple effects of America’s legacy of rac- ism will make its world premiere at The Billie Holiday Theater in Bedford-Stuyvesant next week. “Reparations,” which opened for preview performances Oct. 25, is writer James Sheldon’s sixth play and is directed by Tony-Award nominee Michele Shay. Starring Lisa Arrindell, Kamal Bolden, Alexandra Neil and Gys d Viliers, “Reparations” is the story of a recently widowed white book editor who spends the night with a younger black writer. Af- ter a romantic evening, things turn tense when the writer threatens to expose a dark secret from the editor’s past. At a lunch the following day on the Upper East Side, family friends watch as the young writer struggles to extract “reparations” from his one-night stand. “We continue to peel back the layers of the status quo in the arts and to tackle issues of race, identity, equity and equality through the creative process,” said Dr. Indira Etwaroo, artistic and executive di- rector of the Billie Holiday Theater. The play is part of the theater’s “New Windows” Festival, which is devoted to performances spotlighting intersectional iden- Hosts Mando Rayo (left) and Jarod Neece.

Page demonstrated the ancient “nixtamal” process, which calls for soaking corn kernels in calcium hydroxide or lime before grind- ing them into a dough. Nixtamalization removes contaminants and helps the body get vital nutrients from corn. “It’s important to understand where the food comes from and, in this case, understanding the nixtamal corn tortilla process that dates back to the Aztec empire,” said Rayo. The taco tourists also grabbed grub from street cart vendors and chatted with chef Gustavo Rodriguez over chicken mole at his high- er-end Williamsburg spot, Casa Pública. “There’s a crockpot of all the cultures you can imagine,” Rodri- guez said of the restaurant scene in New York. “Everyone’s there, everyone’s cooking authentic cuisine, and Mexico is right there with them.” Catch the New York City episode of “United Tacos of America” A taco dish featured in an episode of “United Tacos of on Tues, Nov. 5 on El Rey Network at 10 p.m. The episode will be “Reparations” opens at The Billie Holiday Theater Nov. 6.

Monday, November 4, 2019 • SECOND DEPARTMENT/Brooklyn/Daily Eagle • 13 RECENT COURT DECISIONS AND APPEALS

By C. B. Abruzzese Brooklyn Daily Eagle MISREPRESENTATIONS ON POLICY DO NOT RELEASE INSURER FROM LIABILITY Appellate Division, Second Department Penn National Insurance appealed an order by Hon. Lara Genovesi of Kings County Supreme Court, Civil Term, which denied its motions for summary judgment, declaring that it was not obligated to defend and indemnify Greguy Janvier for his alleged involvement in a motor vehicle acci- dent in Brooklyn. In two related complaints stemming from the same three-vehicle accident, Omar Williams and Michael Marks sought to recover damages from the driver of the third vehicle, Janvier. The two actions were then joined for discovery and Hon. Lara Genovesi trial. Janvier’s insurance provider, Penn Eagle file photo by Rob Abruzzese National, issued a personal automobile pol- icy to him in Pennsylvania based on his assertion that he resided in that state and his vehicle was garaged there. Following the accident, Williams and Marks each filed a claim under Janvier’s policy and maintained that the accident occurred as a result of his negligence. In response, Penn National notified Janvier, in a letter dated July 22, 2013, that his policy had been rescinded because he had misrepre- sented that he was a resident of Pennsylvania when, in fact, he resided in New York. The insurance provider enclosed a check return- ing the premium payments made by Janvier under the policy since 2010, plus interest. In separate letters, both dated July 31, 2013, Penn National Insurance advised each of the plaintiffs that it had completed its investigation into their respective claims and deter- mined that “there [was] no coverage for this incident.” Penn National also asserted a cross claim against Janvier for a judgment, declaring it had no duty to defend or indemnify him in connection with any claim arising from the 2013 accident. In response to the claims by Williams and Marks, Penn National moved for summary judgment dismissing the complaint as asserted against it and for summary judgment on its cross claims against Janvier on the grounds that the policy was void because it was procured by fraud. In opposition, Williams and Marks argued, among other things, that the policy issued by Penn National to Janvier was in effect at the time of the accident, that they did not participate in the alleged fraudulent procurement of the policy and that Penn National Insurance may not deny coverage under the policy to them, innocent third parties, based on misrepresentations made by its insured. In two orders dated May 5, 2016, Justice Genovesi granted Penn National’s motions for summary judgment, dismissing the complaint as asserted against it. However, the Supreme Court, after determin- ing that Pennsylvania law was controlling, found that although Penn TO SUBSCRIBE, National properly rescinded the policy in accordance with Pennsylvania law, the plaintiffs, who were innocent third parties, CALL 718-422-7400 were “entitled to the benefits of the policy upon a determination of liability in the underlying personal injury” dispute. Thus, the Supreme Court denied the motion by Penn National seeking declara- tory relief. Penn National appealed and the justices of the Appellate Division, Second Department, affirmed the lower court’s ruling and explained that, contrary to Penn National’s contention, the court did not misapply Pennsylvania law. They went on to note that, since there was no evidence that the plaintiffs had participated in the fraud, Penn National Insurance had failed to demonstrate that they were not innocent third parties who should be precluded from receiving protection under the policy. —Williams v. Janvier, 2016-09925 & 2016-10376, Oct. 23, 2019 ••• DISMISSAL OF HUMAN RIGHTS PETITION AFFIRMED Appellate Division, Second Department 495 East 7th Street Corporation and TKR Property Services appealed an order and judgment by Hon. Debra Silber of Kings County Supreme Court, Civil Term, that granted a motion by the New York State Division of Human Rights that dismissed the petition as time-barred and dismissed the proceeding. In the proceeding, 7th St. Corp and TKR sought review of a determination by the Division of Human Rights, which had adopted the recommendation of an admin- istrative law judge that granted the request of the complainant in the underlying dis- Hon. Debra Silber crimination, proceeding to dismiss the com- Eagle file photo by Rob Abruzzese plaint on the grounds of administrative con- venience so that he could pursue his claims in federal court. Upon appeal, the justices of the Appellate Division, Second Department, agreed with the determination of the Supreme Court. They explained that dismissal of the proceeding was appropriate because it began more than 60 days after service upon the appellants, 7th St. Corp. and TKR, of the Human Rights Division’s determination dated Sept. 24, 2015. —Matter of Jonas Equities, Inc. v.
