Kemper v. Michigan Millers Mut. Ins. Co.

Opinion:
Certified State Law Question, No. 300CV07799. On review of preliminary memoranda. The certified questions are as follows:
"1. Are the requirements of Linko v. Indemnity Ins. Co., 90 Ohio St.3d 565 (2000), relative to an offer of UM/UIM coverage, applicable to a policy of insurance written after enactment of HB 261 and before SB 97?
"2. If the Linko requirements are applicable, does, under HB 261, a signed rejection act as an effective declination of UM/UIM coverage, where there is no other evidence, oral or documentary, of an offer of coverage?"
The court declines to answer the certified questions, and this cause is dismissed.
