NEW YORK LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY, Defendant - Appellee

Appeal from the United States District Court for the Western District of Louisiana USDC No. 3:17-CV-1486

Before CLEMENT, ELROD, and OLDHAM, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM:* Plaintiffs appeal the entry of summary judgment in this insurance- coverage dispute. The district court had subject-matter jurisdiction because the defendant properly removed the case under 28 U.S.C. § 1441. The court held plaintiffs are not entitled to life-insurance benefits because the policy owner stopped paying the premiums fifteen years before he died. After carefully considering the eight issues raised in the plaintiffs’ briefs, the record,

* Pursuant to 5TH CIR. R. 47.5, the court has determined that this opinion should not be published and is not precedent except under the limited circumstances set forth in 5TH CIR. R. 47.5.4.
