Nordahl v. Peterson

The principal question on this appeal is whether the consent of the titleholder and named insured to operate the motor vehicle is implied as a matter of law where the permission to operate the vehicle is from the minor permittee of said titleholder and named insured, when the minor permittee is for all practical purposes the real owner of the vehicle and exercises ownership control over such vehicle. The question involves the interpretation of the omnibus coverage clause, sec. 204.30 (3), Stats. 1 Other questions raised on appeal will be discussed in the opinion.
