KRAUSE v. KRAUSE

No. 97-739.

589 N.W.2d 721 (1999)

Debra Jayne KRAUSE, Appellee, v. Paul Raymond KRAUSE, Defendant, IMT Insurance Company, Intervenor-Appellant.

Supreme Court of Iowa.

Rehearing Denied March 12, 1999.

Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Robert D. Houghton and Theresa C. Davis of Shuttleworth & Ingersoll, P.C., Cedar Rapids, for intervenor-appellant.

James A. Schall, Storm Lake, for appellee.

Considered by McGIVERIN, C.J., and LAVORATO, SNELL, TERNUS, and CADY, JJ.

McGIVERIN, Chief Justice.

The question here is whether a "step-down" provision in an endorsement to an automobile insurance policy, which reduces uninsured motorist benefits to the minimum liability limits in the Iowa financial responsibility law, is enforceable.

We believe that it is. Therefore, we reverse the district court ruling to the contrary and remand for entry of judgment accordingly.
