Physical vs. Mental Ailments in ERISA Disability Claims
DeBofsky Law
Aug. 12, 2024 "[The Eighth Circuit] upheld a district court's determination that Kelsey Weyer was totally disabled and that a policy limitation for mental and nervous disorders was inapplicable....

That requirement was unmet based on the court's finding that 'Weyer's physical conditions independently rendered her unable to work.' " [Weyer v. Reliance Standard Life Ins. Co., No. 23-2862(8th Cir. July 30, 2024)] MORE >> |
