PIERCE, Chief Judge.
This case is affirmed on authority of Carter v. Carter, Fla.1956, 88 So.2d 153 and In re Estate of Maxcy, Fla.App. 1970, 240 So.2d 93. The public policy prohibition against permitting a person to benefit from his own wrongdoing should apply to a recovery under a health and accident insurance policy by an insured for intentionally and voluntarily self-inflicted injuries while legally sane.
Affirmed.
LILES and McNULTY, JJ., concur.
