Court Defers to Insurer's Discretionary Authority
The Wagner Law Group Oct. 6, 2022 "[B]ecause the new insurer had discretionary authority under the LTD policy, the court was required to consider whether the new insurer's interpretation of the benefits eligibility exclusion was reasonable. Here, the court found that reasonable grounds did exist to support insurer's interpretation and decision, even if it wasn't the best reading of the policy exclusion." [Stewart v. Hartford Life & Accident Ins. Co., No. 21-11919 (11th Cir. Aug. 10, 2022)] |
