Insurance policy meaning in death by own action case debated
A historic court discussion unfolds on what constitutes death by own action in life insurance. Justices consider insanity, moral responsibility, and the policy proviso for death by own action, duelling, or by the hands of justice, with extensive expositions on the word suicide and its legal implications. The ruling centers on whether death caused by disease or delusion defeats insurer liability, and whether the insured’s state of mind renders the act non compos mentis.
