1Opinion of the Court
WINTER, Circuit Judge:
Defendants, a group of reinsurers, appeal from Judge Conner’s decision awarding judgment to the plaintiff insurance company. Following a jury trial, Judge Conner held that defendants’ attempted cancellation of a reinsurance contract was invalid. His ruling was based on the jury’s finding that the intermediary to whom plaintiff had paid the premium was an agent for defendants and the undisputed fact that defendants had not made the requisite refund of unearned premium in attempting to cancel. We affirm.
