Cook v. Metropolitan Life Ins. Co.

WESTERFIELD, Judge.

This is a suit by Alice Cook, as the heir and beneficiary of John Cook, who died December 9, 1936, against Metropolitan Life Insurance Company on a policy of the face value of $175 issued on the life of John Cook, September 6, 1920. Defendant admitted the issuance of the policy, but denied liability upon the ground that the policy had lapsed because of the non-payment of premiums and though subsequently revived on May 16, 1932, it again lapsed on August 29, 1932, and was never thereafter revived.

There was judgment below dismissing plaintiff’s suk and she has appealed.
