Re: Program: League of Municipalities Mutual Insurance
Our Insured: City of Oshkosh
Date of Loss: 3/10/2009
Our Claim # WI8 139934
Claimant: Eric Edgerly, 2020 Wisconsin St, Apt 207,
Oshkosh, WI 54901
Midwest Claims Service, Inc. administers the claims for the League of Municipalities Mutual
Insurance, of which the City of Oshkosh is insured. We are in receipt of the above - stated claim in
which the claimant alleges damages to the driver's side mirror of his vehicle resulting from snow
thrown from a City plow while his vehicle was parked at 1643 Nebraska St.
We have completed our investigation of this claim and recommend that the City of Oshkosh deny
this claim pursuant to the Wisconsin statute for disallowance of claim 893.80(lg). The
disallowance of the claim in this manner will allow us to shorten the statute of limitations period to
6 months.
The basis of this denial should be that there is no negligence on behalf of City of Oshkosh. There
is not enough evidence to support the claimant's allegations. At this time we do not have enough
evidence to support that the claimant's vehicle sustained damages due to any on activity performed
by a City plow.
Please send your denial directly to the claimant at the above - stated address. This denial should be
sent certified or registered mail and must be received by the Claimant within 120 days after you
received the claim. Please send copy of denial to our address as stated above. If you have any
further questions, please feel free to call me at 1- 800 - 225 -6561 (ext. 3134). Thank you.
