United States Sixth Circuit


Bonner v. Metro. Life Ins. Co., 09-6085

In a widow's suit against an insurer seeking a declaratory judgment that she is entitled to the Federal Employees Group Life Insurance Act (FEGLIA) policy proceeds, district court's grant of summary judgment in favor of the insurer and the deceased's former girlfriend is affirmed because the 1996 Designation Form was not signed, and thus, the proceeds of the life insurance policy are payable to the former girlfriend under the 1995 Designation.
