EDWARDSVILLE — A Madison County man claims his insurance provider is using bogus excuses to avoid payment of a claim for the loss of his tractor equipment due to a fire.
Dale Grapperhaus filed a complaint April 8 in Madison County Circuit Court against Country Mutual Insurance Company and Brett Miller alleging breach of contract and negligence.
Grapperhaus entered into a contract for insurance with Country Mutual through Miller, according to the suit. Grapperhous alleges that on Oct. 11, 2020, he "sustained a complete loss of his "Case-IH combine AF 7320 and forty-foot Case I-H combine head 2162" due to a fire that was not his fault.
