Opinion by
Judge ROTHENBERG.
In this subrogation action to recoup personal injury protection (PIP) benefits paid to its insured, plaintiff, United Security Insurance Company (PIP carrier), appeals from the summary judgment entered in favor of defendant, Louis Sciarrota d/b/a Louie’s Pizza (employer). Because we hold that PIP carrier has a claim for equitable subrogation against employer, we affirm in part, reverse in part, and remand for further proceedings.
This action arose from a March 1990 automobile accident in which PIP carrier’s insured, William O’Shea, sustained personal injuries.
