Business Law
Q: Patty, who is divorced, owns a house. She has no reasonable expectation of benefit from the life of Quinn, her ex-spouse, but she applies for insurance on his life anyway. She also obtains a fire insurance policy on the house, which she later sells but never cancels the fire insurance policy on. Five years later, Quinn dies and the house is destroyed in a fire. Can Patty obtain payment on either the death of Quinn or the loss of the house? Explain in detail.
