| Parties | Lela Irene MAFFEI and Lela Irene Maffei, Guardian ad litem of Charles Albert Maffei, Carol Irene Maffei and John Jay Maffei, Minors, Appellants (Plaintiffs below), v. INCORPORATED TOWN OF KEMMERER, Wyoming, Appellee (Defendant below). |
| Court | Wyoming Supreme Court |
Lee S. Nebeker, Green River, Richard L. Bird, Jr., and C. J. Frost, Salt Lake City, Utah, for appellants.
Before BLUME, C. J., and PARKER and HARNSBERGER, JJ.
A petition for rehearing has been filed, explaining that because of the town's contract of insurance the appellants could not have joined the insurance company. This is not a ground for rehearing.
The reargument respecting estoppel, waiver, whether the complaint was limited to recovery against the insurance company, and whether there was a miscarriage of justice because the insurance company sold the town a policy of insurance which did not give the town the purported protection, were all disposed of by the opinion.
Rehearing denied.
