LAW REPORT.

COURT OF KING% BENCH, 'OCT.

SIMEON V.: BAZETT.
This was an action on a Policy of Insurance,

effected 'in October, 1810, .at a premium, of-40
gitineas per cent: on gOods by the ship-Sophia,
• from London to the Baltic, against all risks. ex-
cept British capture, and until delivered into. the
warehouse of the consignee, and with liberty:to
carry simulated papers.
it appeared that the cause bad been before
• tried ; that the goods insured belonged to a house
in 'Prussia, and on their arrival in -a Prussian port
-were seized by the Prussian Government for trad-
ing • with England. A verdiet was then found for
the assured, subject to the opinion of the Court,
whether an English underwriter could, be legally
compelled to pay a loss on the property of a Prus-
_ sian subject, arising from the seizure-of the Prus-
sian Government. The question had been argued
before the Court, when it was contended for the
plaintiff; that the underwriter knew the risk of
seizure at the time he wrote the policy, and meant
to insure against it ; which ,was deniedon the other
side; and anew trial was ordered, for the purpose

cumstances, inquired into:
It was now proved, that for a- considerable
time previous to the signing the policy, the trade
with England had been entirely prohibited in
every port in the Ealtie—notwithstanding which.,
a very extensive trade had been carried on, by
means of simulated papers, and with British li-
celfses ; -but that the property was 'seized -when
discovered to have
,Come from England. The
plaintiffs also offered evidence to spew that the
defendant, and the other • underwriters, when this
risk was insured at a premium of 40 guineas per
cent: knew that the seizure by the Government
was one of the risks to be incurred ; but this evi-
dence was rejected.
A- verdict was again- found for the plaintiff,
subject to the opinion of-the. Court, whether the
underwriter is legally liable to the ,loss,.
