    In the Matter of Allstate Insurance Company, Respondent, v Martin Harris et al., Respondents. National Grange Mutual Insurance Company, Appellant, and Vincenzo Materia et al., Respondents.
    [867 NYS2d 679]
   We decline to reach respondent National Grange Mutual Insurance Company’s argument, advanced for the first time on appeal, that an insurer need not file a notice of termination with the Commissioner of the Department of Motor Vehicles after the insured has failed to pay a renewal premium on a policy that had been in force for six months. Were we to consider this argument, we would find it without merit, as it relies on a version of Vehicle and Traffic Law § 313 (2) (a) that has not been in effect since 1998 (see L 1998, ch 509).
