Print

Michigan Court of Appeals; Docket No. 78-2434; Published  
Judges Maher, Bronson, and Moore; Unanimous; Per Curiam  
Official Michigan Reporter Citation: 94 Mich App 40, Link to Opinion alt    


STATUTORY INDEXING:  
Not Applicable

TOPICAL INDEXING:
Casualty Insurance Policies – Minimum Coverages and Required Provisions (MCL 500.3009)   


CASE SUMMARY:  
The Court of Appeals unanimously held that in order for an insurance company to properly exclude a driver from liability coverage, it must strictly follow the dictates of MCLA 500.3009(2) which state the warning language that must appear on the policy or declaration page in order to make a liability exclusion valid. Thus, where an insurance company utilized a form entitled ''Notice and Authorization" to exclude a named driver, a valid exclusion was not effectuated because the proper statutory notice requirements were not complied with.
