Supreme Court of New Jersey

Edgar I. Dixon, Plaintiff-Appellant and Louise Gales, Plaintiff v. Frederick J. Gassert, Jr.

January 20, 195826 N.J. 1

Summary

The Supreme Court of New Jersey affirmed the judgment, holding that payments received by the plaintiff from accident‑health insurance and a hospital contract are "indemnity or other benefits" within the plain meaning of N.J.S.A. 39:6‑70(m) and therefore must be deducted from the $5,000 maximum payable under the Unsatisfied Claim and Judgment Fund statute.
