Case Details

Illinois Supreme Court overturned a lower court decision, allowing a widow to recover up to $1 million from an insurance carrier instead of $20,000 due to ineffective rejection of additional uninsured motorist coverage.

Additional Notes

The case centered on whether an insurance company ran afoul of requirements in the Insurance Code regarding uninsured/underinsured motorist coverage. The court ruled that underinsured coverage must be imposed equal to bodily injury liability limits if rejection of uninsured motorist coverage is ineffective.
