Status: in_force

379.114. Reasons for cancellation. — 1. Except as provided in sections 379.110 to 379.120 , no insurer shall exercise its right to cancel a policy except for the following reasons:

(1) Nonpayment of premium; or

(2) The driver's license of the named insured has been under suspension or revocation at any time during the policy period. Provided, however, in the event more than one person is named as insured and only one of the persons named has his driver's license suspended or revoked then such policy may not be cancelled, but the insurer may issue an exclusion providing, by name, that coverage will not be provided under the terms of the policy while such person is operating the insured vehicle during any period of suspension or revocation.

2. Renewal of a policy shall not constitute a waiver or estoppel with respect to grounds for cancellation which existed before the effective date of such renewal and which were unknown to the insurer at the time of such renewal.

3. No insurer shall cancel or refuse to write or refuse to renew a policy of automobile insurance on any person with at least two years' driving experience solely because of the age, residence, race, sex, color, creed, national origin, ancestry or lawful occupation, including the military service, of anyone who is or seeks to become insured or solely because another insurer has refused to write a policy, or has cancelled or has refused to renew an existing policy in which that person was the named insured, nor shall any insurance company or its agent or representative require any applicant, policyholder or operator to divulge in a written application or otherwise whether any insurer has cancelled or refused to renew or issue to the applicant, policyholder or operator a policy of automobile insurance; provided, however, nothing herein contained shall be construed so as to require any insurer which under its plan of operation insures a particular class of persons or customarily operates in a specific geographical territory to insure any person outside of the class or operate outside the geographical territory.

(L. 1973 H.B. 354 § 3, A.L. 1974 S.B. 572) (1977) This section does not prohibit a cancellation whose effective date would occur more than sixty-one days past the issuance of the policy so long as the cancellation was initiated during the initial sixty-day period.

Partial loss by fire — standard fire insurance policy language, option for settlement of loss. — Any fire insurance policy issued or renewed on or after August 28, 2021, shall be construed to require that a partial loss caused by fire be adjusted in accordance with the following language which shall be considered part of the standard fire insurance policy for Missouri under the provisions of section 379.160 : "It shall be optional with the company to settle the loss at the actual cash value or to repair, rebuild or replace the property destroyed or damaged with other of like kind or quality within a reasonable time, on giving notice of its intention within thirty days or after the receipt of the proof of loss herein required.". However, if any fire policy provides coverage for a partial loss caused by fire, in a policy form determined and approved by the director to be at least as favorable to the insured as the standard fire insurance policy for Missouri, then the insurer issuing the policy shall adjust the loss in accordance with the policy form. Notwithstanding any administrative rule to the contrary, nothing in this section shall be construed to create a general contractor relationship by the company to the insured.
