Before Dykman, Eich, and Sundby, JJ.


DYKMAN, J.

Agnes Kane appeals from an order dismissing her complaint against Employer's Insurance of Wausau (Wausau). The issue is whether an insurer must give notice to a mortgagee, who is an additional insured under the insurance contract, when the term of the insurance contract is shortened at the request of the mortgagor. Because we conclude there was a duty to give notice, we reverse. We remand for a finding as to whether Wausau gave Kane that notice.
