Bankers Life Wins Defense In Insurance Case
In a federal district court, Judge McMillan granted the defense an instructed verdict in a $150,000 insurance dispute brought by Mrs Frances H. of San Antonio. The trial centered on whether a Bankers Life policy lapsed for nonpayment when dividends were not earned. The judge found the policy carried by Solomon L. Jeffers, deceased husband of the complainant, and lapsed prior to his death on October 13, 1925. A tendered check influenced the ruling.
