No. 773DC144.

240 S.E.2d 497 (1978)

35 N.C. App. 150

Herman L. TAYLOR and William L. Hand, Jr. v. ROYAL GLOBE INSURANCE COMPANY.

Court of Appeals of North Carolina.

January 24, 1978.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Lee, Hancock & Lasitter by Moses D. Lasitter, New Bern, for plaintiffs-appellants and plaintiffs-appellees.

Sumrell, Sugg & Carmichael by James R. Sugg, New Bern, for defendant-appellant and defendant-appellee.


VAUGHN, Judge.

Plaintiffs claim against defendant under an insurance policy which requires that notice of any accident shall be given to the insurer by the insured as soon as is practicable. This is an enforceable provision of the contract and has been interpreted to mean that notice should be given as soon as the insured is capable of doing so. See the concurring opinion of Parker, J. in Muncie v. Travelers Insurance Co., 253 N.C. 74
