432 P.2d 470 | Ariz. Ct. App. | 1967
On motion for rehearing, the appellee insurance company points out to this court that it erred in its description of the procedural posture of the case in the lower court. Since the objection is well taken, we deem it necessary to herewith supplement our opinion.
The case was tried to the court, sitting without a jury, with certain facts having 917, would tend to indicate that the case was tried on an “agreed statement of previous opinion, 6 Ariz.App. 276, 431 P.2d been stipulated to by the parties. (Our
The appellee further objects to the statement of this court:
“It is apparent that Travelers Insurance Company was relieved under the uninsured motorist coverage provision to the extent that the policy limits had been expended to pay sums **• * * which the insured shall become legally obligated as damages * * *.’ ”
This statement is but a reiteration of the terms of the Travelers policy, as stiplulated to by the parties as follows:
“Under the terms of Ralph R. Ramsey’s liability insurance policy with the Travelers (Exhibit “B”), Richard A. Kraft would not be entitled to receive any uninsured motorist benefits under the Travelers policy if he had received the maximum benefits allowed by the terms of the policy under Coverage A (liability for bodily injuries) of said policy.”
The appellee rather belatedly argues that the Travelers policy provision is invalid. This court did not presume to pass upon the validity of the provision since its validity was not in issue.
Except as herein modified, we adhere to our decision and deny the motion for rehearing.
NOTE: Judge HERBERT F. KRUCKER having requested that he be relieved from consideration of this matter, Judge LAWRENCE HOWARD was called to sit in his stead and participate in the determination of this decision.
