AND YOO LIABILITY Supreme Court Administers Re- buke to Fire Insurance Com- pany in Ruling OPINION EXPECTED TO STOP OVER-INSURANCE A fire insurance company which re- mains upon a doubly insured risk, af- ter it has knowledge of such double insurance, and retains all premiums paid in on this risk, cannot avoid ha bility for loss upon its policy becatse the latter contained a clause to the ef fect that such policy, unless other- wise provided by agreement endorsed thereon, should be void if the insured should thereafter procure any other contract of insurance, rules the North Dakota supreme court in affirming a judgment of the district court of Morton county, awarding George Yus: ko a verdict for $1,009 and_ costs to the amount of $234.11 against the Middlewest Fire Insurance Co. of Val ley City. The ruling is one of wide import ance to the fire insurance business, es tablishing a precedent which is .ex pected to result in more care upon the part of companies writing fire insur- ance in this state, and which it is hoped will aid in doing away with the practice of over-insurance, which is said to have been common in North Dakota. History of Case. In 1912 Yusko procured. from the Middlewest Insurance Co. a policy protecting him to the extent of $1,750 from loss on barn, livestock and grain contained therei In 1913 the barn was wholly destroyed by lightning and the resultant fire. Yusko claimed loss to the extent of $2,, proof of loss and claim for payment were filed with the insurance company, which declined to settle on several grounds, die most important of which was that prior to the fire, the plaintiff had pro- cured from the Northwestern Fire & Marine Insurance Co. of Minneapolis another policy covering the same barn, all without the knowledge and consent of the defendant. The com- pany further claimed fraud and per- jury on the part of Yusko in a sworn statement of loss alleged to have been furnished by him, and in which he was claimed to have held that the to- tal amount of insurance at the time of the loss was represented by the Middlewest policy. Yusko brought suit in Morton county, and a jury sit- ting before Judge J. M., Hanley re- turned a verdict for the full amount of his claim against the Middlewest ompany, with costs, making a total 4.11. The insurance company ther appealed to the supreme court.
