Rochis v. Milascewicz

Mr. Presiding Justice Barnes delivered the opinion of the court. 4. Insurance, § 67* — what is not negligence tarring recovery for breach of contract by broker to procure. In an action against an insurance broker for breach of a contract to procure fire insurance, the fact that plaintiff waited 4 weeks after he had been assured by the defendant that the policy had been sent for but had not arrived without attempting to procure insurance elsewhere was not negligence barring recovery.
