Wisconsin Court of Appeals
Civil
Insurance – UIM coverage – notice
APPEAL from a judgment of the circuit court for Marathon County: GREGORY E. GRAU, Judge. Affirmed.
Ricky and Janet Raygo appeal a summary judgment dismissing their underinsured motorist (UIM) claim against their automobile insurer, State Farm Mutual Automobile Insurance Company. The Raygos sought UIM coverage for injuries Ricky sustained in a February 27, 2012 accident. The circuit court concluded the Raygos were not entitled to UIM coverage under three policies issued by State Farm, pursuant to altered policy terms that took effect shortly before the accident. The Raygos argue the altered policy provisions never went into effect because State Farm failed to provide notice as required by the policies. We reject the Raygos’ argument and affirm.
