Dell v. Citizens Insurance Company of America

Plaintiff, Tina Marie Dell, appeals as of right the trial court’s order granting the motion of defendants, Citizens Insurance Company of America and Citizens Insurance Company of the Midwest (collectively, Citizens), for judgment notwithstanding the verdict (JNOV). Citizens cross-appeals from an order of the trial court denying its motion for summary disposition under MCE 2.116(C)(8). We affirm the trial court’s order denying Citizens’ motion for summary disposition, reverse the trial court’s order granting JNOV, and remand for further proceedings.
