Congratulations to MBL Partner Mark Cole and Senior Attorney Maggie Mason on securing a favorable ruling on a Motion for Summary Disposition on behalf of an insurance company client.
The court granted dismissal based on the policyholder’s election to exclude Personal Injury Protection (PIP) coverage under her auto insurance policy.
Maggie Mason successfully argued that the insurance company did not assume the risk of providing medical expense coverage. Her argument relied on the insured’s application, which included a valid waiver of PIP coverage and proof of qualified alternative coverage.
The court determined no genuine issue of material fact, concluded that no medical expense coverage existed under the policy, and ruled that the claimant was not entitled to payment of medical expenses. The case was dismissed with prejudice.
