Peters v. American Home Assurance Co.
Florida District Courts of Appeal · Decided October 30, 1974 · Alan, Boardman, Grimes, Schwartz
302 So. 2d 769; 1974 Fla. App. LEXIS 8471 (Southern Reporter, Second Series)

Peters v. American Home Assurance Co.

Opinion of the Court

PER CURIAM.

The sole issue in this case is whether the decedent was a “salaried employee” of Career Enterprises, Inc. at the time of his death so as to qualify for coverage under a policy insuring against accidental death. Conflicting inferences may be *770drawn from the facts established by the record with respect to whether the decedent’s status as a salaried employee of Career was terminated when he began working with one of Career’s franchised companies shortly before he died in an airplane accident. Therefore, appellee was not entitled to a summary judgment. Jenkins v. Brackin, Fla.App.2d, 1965, 171 So.2d 589.

Reversed.

BOARDMAN, Acting C. J., GRIMES, J., and SCHWARTZ, ALAN R., Associate Judge, concur.
