Insurance contract question

Inappropriate question. ←Baseball Bugs What's up, Doc? carrots06:19, 1 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]
The following discussion has been closed. Please do not modify it.

What would happen if someone signed an insurance contract with an insurance company and this insurance company subsequently refused to pay up and so this person would have went to court but the relevant court would have declared this insurance contract unenforceable due to it being contrary to public policy? In such a scenario, what is the relevant court actually going to do? Order the insurance company to pay this person a refund? Anything else? If so, what exactly?

Any insurance question is going to depend on where it is, and hence the laws involved. But can you think of an example of "contrary to public policy"? ←Baseball Bugs What's up, Doc? carrots05:00, 1 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]
This is either a disguised request for legal advice, or a request for speculation. We don't do either of those. --142.112.159.101 (talk) 05:22, 1 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]
I agree. ←Baseball Bugs What's up, Doc? carrots06:19, 1 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]
