The Court of Cards: the Supreme Court, Casinos & Insurance Fraud
PLEASE NOTE, PLYMOUTH & CORNWALL INSURANCE INSTITUTE & PFS MEMBERS HAVE PRIORITY IN RESPECT OF BOOKINGS.
Overview
It feels like the law relating to insurance fraud is in constant motion. The courts have been grappling with tests such as “fundamental dishonesty”. But could it be that a case involving alleged cheating in a game of baccarat in a casino in London has brought some clarity to how the courts will deal with the test of fundamental dishonesty in insurance claims?
Learning Objectives

understand the foundations of the test of fundamental dishonesty as it applies to fraudulent insurance claims.
