Description
While riding his uninsured motorcycle, Francisco Chavez, appellees husband, was killed in a collision with an uninsured motorist. At the time, he had an insurance policy on another vehicle providing uninsured motorist coverage. Mrs. Chavez filed a claim under that policy which State Farm rejected, asserting that under the "Coverage U" exclusion, Francisco was not protected against injuries inflicted by a negligent uninsured motorist while he occupied a vehicle owned by him other than the insured vehicle. The district court held this exclusion to be in violation of public policy under the New Mexico Uninsured Motorist Statute. § 64-24-105, N.M.S.A. 1953. We affirm.
