Legal battle over minor life policy at center of suit
A Tazewell county case questions whether a beneficiary can collect on a life policy taken out on a minor with no blood relation. The Bennett boy’s mother seeks the payout after his accidental death in Wynn’s home, with the insurer halting payment pending court action. Local insured minors, policy details, and potential legal precedent surround the case as observers await the ruling. Also noted are Sunday services at the Christian Church for Mother's Day and related community notices.
