Supreme Court of Oklahoma

Accident Care and Treatment Center v. Csaa General Insurance Co.

November 7, 20232023 OK 105

Summary

The Supreme Court of Oklahoma held that the settlement release signed by the injured party contained no assignment of lien‑challenging rights to the insurer and that, absent fraud, the written release barred any parol evidence of an implied assignment. Accordingly, the Court affirmed the trial court’s partial summary‑judgment ruling and vacated the Court of Civil Appeals decision, remanding for proceedings consistent with this opinion.
