Insurance law LUMBERG FINAL JUDGMENT

LUMBERG FINAL JUDGMENT

The plaintiff failed to prove on the balance of probabilities that the accident was natural and that she was entitled to compensation under the insurance contract. The evidence presented was contradictory, and investigation reports showed no mechanical defect or natural cause for the accident. Therefore, the plaintiff's claims were dismissed for lack of merit.
