MORRISTOWN DIVORCE MEDIATION

The deceased ex-husband should have maintained the life insurance policy on his life, called for under the parties' New Jersey judgment of divorce. Therefore, the ex-wife's motion for a $300,000 judgment against the defendant (the Estate of the late husband) for failure to provide the insurance was properly granted, for benefit of the parties’ unemancipated daughter, even though the Estate had a pending coverage suit against the insurer.  Weiss, etc. v. Estate of Robinson, Deceased, New Jersey App. Div., January 11, 2007
