Lloyd’s of London has asked a federal judge to void a $1.6-million insurance policy on Pelle Lindbergh, saying the late Philadelphia Flyers star goalie was in violation of the policy when he died after a car crash last November.
The underwriter’s Philadelphia attorney, Louis Bricklin, charged the policy taken out by the team contained a clause that prohibited payment in the event Lindbergh’s death was caused by his “own criminal or felonious act.”
Tests showed that Lindbergh’s blood-alcohol level was twice the legal limit when his custom-built Porsche crashed into the concrete steps of a school at Somerdale, N.J., on Nov. 10.
