Thomas v. Estate of Grunsten

4 Citing cases

  1. SEYMOUR v. ESTATE OF LEAH KARP PAC. IN.

    No. 2005-CA-1382 Consolidated with: No. 2005-CA-1383 (La. Ct. App. Aug. 7, 2008)

    The vehicle driven by the decedent is not a vehicle shown in the policy declarations. Therefore, CMIC argues that there is no UM coverage, citing Thomas v. Estate of Grunsten, 492 So.2d 201 (La.App. 4 Cir. 1986), and Branch v. O'Brien, 396 So.2d 1372 (La.App. 2 Cir. 1981). However, the Thomas case does not involve UM coverage and the language in the policies at issue in that case as well as the facts are all so different from those of the instant case.
