Expressing Intent to Appeal in the Future Does Not Constitute an 'Appeal'
Lane Powell PC Link to more items from this source
Feb. 19, 2013
"Can a mere request for medical records, and a reference to an 'appeal in the future tense,' trigger the appeal? No.... [According to the court, a] timely appeal is a prerequisite to filing an action in federal court; ... It was reasonable for Hartford to conclude [the plaintiff's] December 2008 letter was not an appeal because it merely made 'reference to an appeal [in] the future tense'." [Reindl v. Hartford Life and Accident Insurance Co., 2013 WL 425356 (8th Cir. Feb. 5, 2013)]
