Insurance—Disability Insurer's Refusal To Pay Gives Rise To Action In Tort—Fletcher V. Western National Life Insurance Co., 10 Cal. App. 3d 376, 89 Cal. Rptr. 78 (1970), Anon

Washington Law Review

Plaintiff suffered a totally disabling back injury in an industrial accident. His insurance policy with the defendant company provided for benefits of $150 per month for thirty years for total disability due to injury. But if the disability were due to sickness, the benefits were to continue for only two years. The defendant had received extensive medical information confirming the accidental cause of the disablement. To avoid full payment, however, it attempted to pay under the limited two-year sickness provision, then stopped payments altogether, fabricated a story about a previously existing condition and demanded return of the payments it had …

Recent Legislation, J. Rodney Johnson Jan 1972

Recent Legislation, J. Rodney Johnson

University of Richmond Law Review

The 1972 session of the General Assembly was especially active in the areas of wills, trusts, and estates. Much of this legislation deals with fine points not affecting the average lawyer in his practice. However, the following items of legislation should be of general interest to the attorney whose practice involves probate work or estate planning, even though he does not hold himself out as a specialist in these areas.


Insurance-Stacking-Multiple Recovery Permitted Under Single Policy Insuring More Than One Vehicle Jan 1972

Insurance-Stacking-Multiple Recovery Permitted Under Single Policy Insuring More Than One Vehicle

University of Richmond Law Review

"Pyramiding" or "stacking" as applied to an automobile insurance policy covering more than one vehicle occurs when a claimant under the provisions of a policy is permitted to aggregate the limits of the units of coverage in that policy to satisfy a claim against the insurer. This enables a maximum possible recovery of a sum equal to the declared limits of the insurer's liability multiplied by the number of vehicles covered under the policy. The Virginia Supreme Court has previously applied the concept of stacking to a claim under the medical payments coverage provision of a multi-car policy. In two …

Lawyers' Professional Liability Insurance, Donald J. Ladanyi Jan 1972

Lawyers' Professional Liability Insurance, Donald J. Ladanyi

Cleveland State Law Review

Due to the nature of his profession, the practicing lawyer is invariably confronted with significant financial risks. Because of the growing number of claims for professional negligence, coupled with the fact that the monetary risk of claims is largely unmeasurable, a constantly increasing proportion of lawyers is considering the feasibility of professional liability insurance protection. This type of insurance offers not only financial security, but also a means for the advantageous and efficient settlement of just claims without damaging notoriety.

Uninsured Motorist Coverage, Company Insolvency, And The Ohio Insurance Guaranty Association Act, Mario C. Ciano Jan 1972

Uninsured Motorist Coverage, Company Insolvency, And The Ohio Insurance Guaranty Association Act, Mario C. Ciano

Cleveland State Law Review

It is not often that a legislative event and a happenstance of life converge almost simultaneously upon a specific and narrow issue of law. This is precisely what occurred in Ohio in the latter part of 1970. In that year, the legislature amended the Ohio Uninsured Motorist Statute to declare, in effect, that a vehicle would be considered "uninsured" when the company insuring that vehicle for some reason became financially insolvent. The amendment became effective October 1, 1970. That same year the legislature enacted legislation to provide a fund from which claims could be paid in the eventuality that an …
