Axa Equitable Life Ins. Co. v. Ekong CA2/8
Dr. Enobong Ekong changed the beneficiary on a life insurance policy in August 2011, shortly before his death. After his passing, a family law court concluded that Enobong’s ex-wife Ruth J. Ekong owned one-half of the policy. (Because of their shared surname we refer to several persons by their first names.) Subsequently, in the appealed from judgment, the probate court awarded Ruth 50 percent of the proceeds of the life insurance policy.
The trustee of Enobong’s trust, Edi M.O. Faal, appeals from the judgment of the probate court. On appeal, the trustee demonstrates no error, and we affirm the judgment awarding respondent Ruth 50 percent of the proceeds of Enobong’s life insurance policy.
