Rosen v. Pacific Life Insurance Co. CA4/3
Plaintiff Peggy Rosen (Rosen) claimed life insurance proceeds after her husband passed away. Defendant Pacific Life Insurance Company (Pacific Life) denied the claim on the ground the policy had lapsed for lack of payment. Rosen sued, arguing she, as the beneficiary, should have been given notice before the policy was terminated. The court entered summary judgment in favor of Pacific Life, finding Rosen was not entitled to notice. Rosen appealed.
The sole issue on appeal is whether Rosen was entitled to notice of the pending lapse as an “other person having an interest in the individual life insurance policy” under Insurance Code section 10113.71, subdivision (b)(1). We conclude she was not and affirm the judgment.
