Munsch v. Liberty Mut. Ins. Co., 2005 CA 0147, COURT OF APPEAL OF LOUISIANA, FIRST CIRCUIT, February 10, 2006, Judgment Rendered
View this case - free  

Overview: Selection of lower limits of UM motorist coverage by car owner's deceased husband was not valid after policy was transferred into owner's name because La. Rev. Stat. Ann. § 22:680(1)(a)(ii) made the continued validity of the UM selection contingent on a renewal issued to "same named insured," thus denial of summary judgment for insurer was proper.

View this case - free  

Overview: Department of public safety and corrections properly relied on La. Rev. Stat.

Reed v. Abney, 2004 CA 1928, COURT OF APPEAL OF LOUISIANA, FIRST CIRCUIT, February 10, 2006, Judgment Rendered
View this case - free  

Overview: Court erred in finding 10-year prescription specifically provided in La. Rev. Stat. Ann. § 42:1461 did not apply as there was no evidence fire protection district employees had misappropriated funds or illegally taken funds without authority; prescriptive period in fact had not run, and court should not have made determination on merits of case.

Richardson v. Lott, 2004 CA 2770, COURT OF APPEAL OF LOUISIANA, FIRST CIRCUIT, February 10, 2006, Judgment Rendered
View this case - free  

Overview: In a police officer's challenge to the trial court's ruling that the Parish validly rejected UM coverage, the reissued policy did not require the issuance of a new UM selection/rejection form under La. Rev. Stat. Ann. § 22:680 as amending the policy to add pesticide coverage was not material to the initial selection/rejection waiver of UM coverage.
