Nationwide wins as appeals court kills $10 million claim over notice delay

The notice came not from Barrow himself but from the victim’s attorney, who discovered the policy while pursuing collection efforts in a separate fraudulent transfer action. The victim, identified in court documents as A.B., had filed an invasion of privacy lawsuit against Barrow in February 2018. During discovery in the fraudulent transfer case, counsel for Barrow’s wife mentioned he thought Barrow was insured by Nationwide. A.B.’s attorney then served a subpoena on Nationwide in November 2018, requesting production of the policies.
