Outcome
The Court of Appeals affirmed that the insurance company (Grange Mutual) waived its void policy defense by canceling the policy with a future effective date rather than immediately rescinding it upon discovery of misrepresentations, and therefore the policy remained in effect to cover the employee's out-of-state injury claim.
