The case of Ch ambers vs. Hughes and Coleman is one of those cases that will never get talked about in the news media. But this case has had a major impact upon the rights of persons injured in an auto accident to recover no-fault benefits for payment of their medical expenses.
Thus, the Court of Appeals’ decision in this case seems to penalize those with insurance vs. those without, although that may become a thing of the past with the advent of the Affordable Care Act.
A motion for discretionary review was filed with the Ky. Supreme Court in August, 2015. It remains to be seen whether the Ky. Supreme Court will grant this motion and determine whether it believes the Court of Appeals’ decision was correct.
