Eighth Circuit Finds Abuse of Discretion When Insurance Company Stopped Payments of Anesthesiologist's Disability Benefit After 10 Years

Dec. 28, 2021

"The [U.S. Court of Appeals for the Eighth Circuit] concluded that Sun Life abused its discretion by terminating Roehr's benefits based substantially on the same records it had before it when it found him continuously disabled for ten years. In other words, the court found that there was no evidence in the record to justify Sun Life's about-face. The court remanded the matter to the district court with directions to order Sun Life to reinstate Roehr's benefits." [Roehr v. Sun Life Assurance Co. of Canada, No. 21-1559 (8th Cir. Dec. 27, 2021)]  MORE >>
