Nationwide Mutual Insurance Co. and two other entities have responded to a lawsuit in which a family states that they were of change for the cost of a charter flight when a member of his family died on a vacation trip to Indonesia, saying that the limitations in politics were clear.
The plaintiffs in the claim of the Superior Court of Los Angeles are Deborah Klein, sister of the late Joseph Klein and the widow of Joseph Klein, Wendy Klein. The Nationwide Coacusados are World Nomads Inc., who sold Kleins’s policy, and the Trip Mate Inc.
“The claims of the plaintiffs are prohibited, in their entirety or part, because the defendants throughout the country of mutual insurance and travel companions have paid to the plaintiffs all the benefits that are owed under the subject insurance policy”, the lawyers of the accused are in judicial documents presented on Friday with Judge Jon Takasugi.
All claims of the plaintiffs are completely prohibited or partly due to the “restrictions, exclusions, limitations and/or conditions contained in the subject insurance policy, as well as the other provisions of the policy”, defense lawyers further support their allegations while maintaining that there are no reasons for the plaintiffs to seek punitive damage.
According to the lawsuit, Joseph and Deborah Klein hired Nationwide in 2023 for travel insurance that included a benefit of $ 500,000 for the repatriation of remains to the United States. The couple and six others left for Indonesia that same month, but Joseph died unexpectedly the following month in a remote area of the country and an essential step in their repatriation to the United States was to reservoir their remains and subsequently transport it to Yakarta, according to the demand.
The embalming took place and the price of the chartered flight to Indonesia was approximately $ 77,855. But throughout the country and the other entities said that the cost must be divided between the seven surviving passengers, and said that insurers would only compensate for an eighth of the flight costs, thus reducing the repatriation benefit at the expense of the plaintiffs because other passengers were also aboard the flight of the height, the suit set the suit.
Throughout the country and the other defendants rejected the appeal of the Klein family in December 2023 and reaffirmed their position last August, according to the lawsuit brought on March 3, which establishes that the decision has caused the mental suffering and pain of the plaintiffs.
