§ 26-17-120 — Death pending conversion

If a person insured under the group policy, or the insured
dependent of a covered person, dies during the period within
which he would have been entitled to have an individual policy
issued to him in accordance with W.S. 26-17-118 or 26-17-119 and
before the individual policy is effective, the amount of life
insurance which he would have been entitled to have issued under
the individual policy is payable as a claim under the group
policy, whether or not application for the individual policy or
the payment of the first premium has been made.
