Opinion
No. 256.
June 8, 1936.
Appeal from the District Court of the United States for the Northern District of New York.
Petition for rehearing.
For former opinion, see 83 F.2d 163.
Coplin Yaras, of Albany, N.Y., for plaintiff-appellee.
Before L. HAND, SWAN, and CHASE, Circuit Judges.
Even though such proof of disability as the plaintiff gave to the defendant in support of his application were to be treated, under the circumstances stated in the opinion, as meeting the formal requirements of the policy, the evidence was insufficient in substance. The evidence given at the trial did not show that when his application was made he was, and for ninety days had been, wholly and permanently unable to engage in any occupation or profession or to perform any work for compensation, gain, or profit.
Petition denied.
