Farm Bureau Life Insurance Case Summary

A civil suit is commonly derived from a private party or individual, who alleges damages from duty of care. Once a civil case begins, it is the duty of the plaintiff to prove, with evidence, duty of care, breach of duty, causation, and damages. Conversely, the defendant must prove their affirmative defense against documented allegations. The Oliver versus Brock case proves the importance of supporting evidence as opposed to hearsay statements, to prove the truth of the matter.

The facts of this case are fairly simple. On the 27th of November 1986, the first appellant, CES attended Superclinics where she was looked at by Dr Nafte, the second respondent. CES was a young woman, only 21 years old, who was studying photography full-time. CES did not have vast financial resources as she could only work part-time. When CES began her first consultation with Dr Nafte she claimed that she had missed her period and was worried that she might be pregnant. She claimed that, if it was found that she was pregnant, she would immediately seek to have her pregnancy ended by way of an abortion. According to CES, and disputed by Dr Nafte, Dr Nafte sent CES home and told her to return if she did not get her period within the next week. As she did not get her period, she once again returned to Superclinics and was seen to by Dr Nafte. Again she stated that, if it was found that she was pregnant, she would immediately seek a termination. Dr Nafte took a blood test in order to determine whether or not CES was truly pregnant. The blood was sent to Omniman Pathology Services and a result was returned to Superclinics a day later. CES claimed that she was then told that her blood test came back negative and that, when in fact she was pregnant, that she was not pregnant.

Janet applied for life insurance on February 10, 2003. The amount her policy would pay out upon her death would be $250,000. On September 1, 2005 Janet was sadly murdered which caused the life insurance company to pay out the beneficiary who in our case is Janet’s husband, Craig. Although the contract should have been paid out in full upon Janet’s death, the insurance company is refusing to pay out the policy. When Janet applied for life insurance in 2003 she when through an extensive application form which is typical for all life insurance contracts.

For these two reason and more the life insurance company is refusing to payout the policy to Craig.

No. The managers at Wyant and Wheeler were not justified to fire Andrew. Andrew, being a brilliant lawyer knew that it was his legal right to keep his HIV status secret to himself.

There are a number of intentions that came to mind about obtaining a malpractice insurance policy on entrance into NP practice. Primarily is to have peace of mind, which is of incalculable value. I am definitely sure that there would always that worrisome thought about being sued. However, the fact that there is a malpractice insurance policy shifts the focus on providing a high quality care to the patients to the best of an NP’s abilities. Second, having the malpractice insurance covers the expensive settlement cost if there is ever a legal case against an NP. Without such insurance is like going into a war without a weapon. The amount of the settlement may be hundreds of thousand to million dollars and obtaining malpractice insurance would aid you to continue to live decently, financially speaking. The lawsuit itself negatively influence an NP’s wellbeing, not having malpractice insurance is like stripping the monetary aspect of the care provider’s life. Lastly, it would be great if there would not ever be a lawsuit in the entirety of an NP’s career. Despite the cost of insurance that he/she may spend, it is also crucial to think about how that money is distributed amongst the providers under that same insurance policy. It not only protects an individual NP but also contributes to the distribution of the money that helps the rest of the insured providers under similar insurance company.
