Florence v. Travelers Insurance

Plaintiff, under a Group Insurance Policy Contract which covered her deceased husband, seeks to collect a $4,000 death benefit. In the alternative, plaintiff seeks damages “occasioned by alleged negligence of defendants in advising the insured with respect to the disability premium waiver provisions of the contract.” Summary judgment orders were entered in favor of defendants, and plaintiff appeals.

The orders appealed from were entered on plaintiff’s verified amended statement of claim, Travelers’ verified answer, interrogatories, affidavits and counteraffidavits, and supporting exhibits.
