Forrest v. Mutual Benefit Life Insurance
Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of New York · Decided June 6, 1949
275 A.D.2d 939
Forrest v. Mutual Benefit Life Insurance

Opinion of the Court

The policy contained express provisions making certain benefits applicable on the basis of the commencement of the policy year earlier than the date on which the policy was actually issued. However, the suicide and incontestability clauses are governed by the date of issue of the policy by their express provisions rather than by the commencement of the policy year. Carswell, Acting P. J., Johnston, Adel, Sneed and Wenzel, JJ., concur. [195 Misc. 12.]
