AUTO POLICY FILING FEE - H.B. 4784: FLOOR ANALYSIS
House Bill 4784 (as reported without amendment)
Sponsor: Representative Alan Sanborn
House Committee: Insurance and Financial Services
Senate Committee: Financial Services
CONTENT
The bill would amend the Insurance Code by eliminating a filing fee necessary to contest an automobile policy cancellation. Under current law, an insured must supply the Office of Financial and Insurance Services with a written request and a $15 fee to contest the grounds of a cancellation. The bill would eliminate the fee and require the request to be filed with the Commissioner of the OFIS. The Code states that the request must be filed within seven days after notice of the cancellation is mailed; the bill would retain that requirement.
