Director of Insurance
Arizona Corporation Commission
Phoenixs Arizona
Dear Mr. Rummage:
We have your letter of October'19, 1949. We
regret the delay that has been occasioned in answering
your inquiry. In your letter you state:
I am enclosing a letter fromn
Elmer liarren Sawyer, Attorney
for the Worth American Mutual
Insurance Company of I1itnlngton,
Delaware, which is domiciled
in only one state but does bus-
iness in other states through
the mails only.
I refer you to the additional
Provision No. 11 on the last
page of the policy. According
to an opinion of the Supreme
Court of the United States in
the case of Allgeyer v. Louis-
iana (U.S.) Section 10351 N.,
a company can solicit insurance
in any state without being for-
mally admitted if it does so
through the United States mails
and not through an agent in
the state. The reason the ad-
ditional provision No. 11 is
inserted in this policy is to
provide some method of Service
of Process. Is this method of
providing for the Service of
Process legal in the State of
Arizona?
