19 Miss. Code. R. 4-3.17

Current through December 10, 2024
Rule 19-4-3.17 - Right of Appeal

The Committee may hear any appeal from an applicant, insured, producer, or insurer on a matter pertaining to the proper administration of the Plan. Each Notice of Cancellation or denial of insurance under the provisions of the Plan shall contain or be accompanied by a statement that the insured or applicant has a right to appeal to the Committee within thirty (30) days from the date of cancellation, or denial of insurance. The action of the Committee may be appealed to the Commissioner of Insurance within thirty (30) days from the date of action by the Committee.

The Plan shall promptly notify the company, the insured or the applicant, and the producer of record, of the disposition of the appeal, which notification in the case of refusal to sustain a cancellation shall include notice that upon payment of the deposit premium to the company a policy or binder will be issued.

An appeal shall not operate as stay of cancellation, provided, however, that if either the Committee or the Commissioner of Insurance refuses to sustain the cancellation, the company which issued the policy or binder shall, within two working days after receipt of the deposit premium, provided such deposit premium is received within thirty (30) days after determination of the appeal, issue a new policy or binder effective for a period of one year from the date of issuance of such new policy or binder. The balance of the premium shall be payable as provided in the Plan of Operation Personal Automobile Part and the Plan of Operation Commercial Automobile Part.
