Maine Family F.C.U. v. Sun Life Assurance |
 | | Because we find, however, that Sun Life Assurance Company was not entitled to raise a third party's defense of fraud to its liability as drawer of the instruments, we vacate that portion of the judgment entered in favor of Sun Life and against the Credit Union. |
 | | Upon his death, Sun Life issued three checks, each in the amount of $40,759.35, to each of Elden's children.{1} The checks were drawn on Sun Life's account at Chase Manhattan Bank in Syracuse, New York.{2} The checks were given to Hall for delivery to the Guerrettes. |
 | | Sun Life immediately ordered Chase Manhattan to stop payment on the checks.{5} Thus, when the checks were ultimately presented to Chase Manhattan for payment, Chase refused to pay the checks, and they were returned to the Credit Union. |
