Court of Appeals for the Tenth Circuit August 9, 1989, No. 87-2787 (Dean v. Johnson)

JOHN P. MOORE, Circuit Judge.

The single issue in this appeal is whether an insured’s change of designated beneficiary under a Federal Employees’ Group Life Insurance Policy (FEGLI) takes precedence over a state court order prohibiting a change of designated beneficiary. We affirm the district court’s finding federal law controls this issue.
