Yerkovich v. AAA

Michigan Supreme Court

Decided April 25, 2000No. 112891, Calendar No. 4PublishedCited by 38 opinions

1Opinion of the CourtCavanagh, J.

The issues presented are: (1) whether the subrogation agreement between defendant fund and plaintiff Yerkovich entitled the fund to reimbursement from plaintiff for medical expenses and, if so, (2) whether plaintiffs no-fault insurer, defendant AAA, must refund plaintiff for that reimbursement. We hold that the subrogation clause did not confer upon the fund the right to be reimbursed out of plaintiffs third-party recovery from tortfeasors. Because we hold that the fund was not entitled to reimbursement, we do not reach the second question.
