Heading: Other Rescissions

Text: Fortis argues that the circuit court allowed the jury to consider evidence that the rescission committee harmed nonparties to the suit, in violation of its constitutional rights. See Campbell, 538 U.S. at 420, 123 S.Ct. 1513. Fortis asserts that the jury should not have considered evidence indicating that forty-five other rescission cases were considered with Mitchell's in the course of a two-hour committee meeting. This argument is without merit. It is evident from the record that Mitchell introduced this evidence in order to establish the inference that Fortis could not have spent more than three minutes in deliberating the rescission of Mitchell's policy. Fortis could have defended itself from such evidence had the rescission committee kept minutes in its meetings. The circuit court did not err in allowing this evidence.
