Abstract

An agreement to limit the contest period in which other than specifically excepted defenses on the policy can be raised by the insurer is a common feature in a modem life insurance contract. Such a clause gives the policy holder and the beneficiary a guaranty against expensive litigation after the lapse of the specified period while reserving to the insurer a reasonable opportunity to challenge the validity of the policy.
