STATE OF MICHIGAN
COURT OF APPEALS
AUTO OWNERS INSURANCE COMPANY,
UNPUBLISHED
January 9, 1998
Plaintiff-Appellant,
v
No. 199394
Ingham Circuit Court
LC No. 96-083482 CZ
ALLSTATE INSURANCE COMPANY,
Defendant-Appellee.
Before: Gage, P.J., and Murphy and Reilly, JJ.
MEMORANDUM.
Plaintiff appeals by right summary disposition in favor of defendant in this dispute between no
fault insurers over apportionment of personal injury protection benefits. This appeal is being decided
without oral argument pursuant to MCR 7.214(E).
Plaintiff and defendant both insured the vehicles owned and driven by members of the Sullivan
family. The insureds’ son, Ryan, sustained personal injuries while driving one of these insured vehicles.
Plaintiff argues that because it issued only one such policy and defendant issued two such policies, it
should bear only one-third of the loss rather than one-half. This argument is without merit in light of
Citizens Ins Co v Clouse, 176 Mich App 138, 143-144; 439 NW2d 304 (1989), which plaintiff
neither cites nor attempts to distinguish.
Affirmed.
/s/ Hilda R. Gage
/s/ William B. Murphy
/s/ Maureen Pulte Reilly
