Clark County REMC v. Glenn Reis, Dale Bottorff, Jimmie Sanders, and Steve Stumler
20A-CT-622

Finds that because there was mutuality of obligation under a policy granting health insurance benefits to certain former directors of Clark County REMC, the Clark Circuit Court did not err by finding the policy to be a contract.
