Rogers v. Household Life Insurance

HORTON, Justice.

This appeal arises from a claim for life insurance proceeds. The district court granted summary judgment in favor of Household Life Insurance Company (HLIC) on the grounds that Alan Rogers’ life insurance contract was void because he was adjudicated incompetent before he entered the contract. Alan’s son and guardian, Jason Rogers, argues that the contract was merely voidable, that as Alan’s guardian he had the capacity to and did ratify the contract, and that the contract was thus enforceable. We affirm, but deny HLIC’s request for attorney fees incurred on appeal.
