Life and Casualty Insurance Co. of Tenn. v. Davis

Court of Appeals of Kentucky
Jun 24, 1955
280 S.W.2d 543 (Ky. Ct. App. 1955)

Opinion

June 24, 1955.

Appeal from the Circuit Court, Clark County, William J. Baxter, J.

McDonald McDonald, Lexington, for appellant.

Beverly White, Winchester, for appellee.


This is a motion for an appeal from a judgment against appellant in favor of appellee for $1,000. The suit was upon a policy of insurance on an infant child and the defense was that false and fraudulent statements were made in the application. The application contained no limitation on the authority of the agent who sold the policy and it was never attached to the policy. The limitation so relied upon was contained only in the policy which was later issued. This case is controlled by Employers Mut. Fire Ins. Co. v. Cunningham, Ky., 253 S.W.2d 393.

The motion for appeal is overruled and the judgment is affirmed.
