Supreme Court of North Carolina · Decided March 9, 1955 · BaeNhill, DeviN
86 S.E.2d 201; 241 N.C. 614; 1955 N.C. LEXIS 428 (South Eastern Reporter, Second Series)

Patrick v. Pilot Life Insurance Company

Opinion

Per Curiam.

The plaintiff seeks to get around the exclusion clause in the policy by claiming the clause is contrary to the optional standard provision as set out in G.S. 58-253 (6). The section cited refers to the unlawful conduct of the insured. In this case it is admitted that the insured was without fault. The section cited, therefore, has no applica *615 tion. On the authority of Whitaker v. Insurance Co., 213 N.C. 376, 196 S.E. 328, the judgment is

Affirmed.

BaeNhill, 0. J., and DeviN, J., took no part in the consideration or decision of this case.
