Uninsured Motorist (UM) Benefits Payable Where Employee Killed by Co-Worker's Negligence

The estate of an employee killed by a co-worker's negligent operation of their employer's vehicle may recover uninsured motorist (UM) benefits from their own policy the Kentucky Court of Appeals recently ruled in State Farm v. Slusher, No. 2008-CA-000169-MR (February 27, 2009). The Court rejected State Farm's argument that payment of UM benefits was barred because workers compensation benefits had been paid to the Estate.
