Teter v. Corley

Rees, J.:

This is an appeal by an insurer (“Ranger”) from a determination that it afforded coverage under an automobile liability insurance policy.

On February 2, 1975, a Chevrolet automobile was involved in an accident. Beverly J. Teter, a passenger, was injured. The driver was Jerry L. Corley. The car was owned by Jerry’s father, Herbert E.
