Summary

The Supreme Court of New Jersey reversed the Appellate Division's dismissal of the broker, Marvin H. Guenther, Jr., finding that the evidence at trial could support an inference of negligence and remanded for a new trial on that issue. The Court affirmed the judgment in favor of General Insurance Company, holding that the policy issued did not provide coverage for the accident. A dissent would have affirmed the dismissal of Guenther, and a brief concurrence agreed with the majority's result.
