Connecticut Appellate Court May 27, 2003, AC 23280 (Taricani v. Nationwide Mutual Insurance)

Opinion

PETERS, J.

In this state, an insurance policyholder who fails to give an insurer timely notice of an insurable loss does not forfeit his insurance coverage if he can prove that his delay did not prejudice his insurer. Aetna Casualty & Surety Co. v. Murphy, 206 Conn. 409, 417-18, 538 A.2d 219 (1988).
