Supreme Court Refines Insurance Vesting in Estate Executors
The Supreme Judicial Court rules that when a beneficiary dies before the insured, the policy interest vests in the insured's executor, not the beneficiary's next of kin. In the Haskins case the Massachusetts Mutual Aid Society policy of 4000 dollars on Jonathan Haskins' life goes to his wife who predeceased him, reversing the Probate Court and remanding for further action. Also addressed are mandamus petitions over Commonwealth Avenue, contract actions involving the Massachusetts Benefit Association, and probate entries listing wills and administrations in Suffolk.
