Desjardins Sécurité financière, compagnie d’assurance vie v. Émond, 2016 QCCA 161
The Court of Appeal has confirmed that the scope of the expression “indictable offence” as it appears in section 2402 of the Civil Code of Quebec (“C.C.Q.”) is limited to unmitigated indictable offences. On July 8, 2009, the insured was killed following a motorcycle accident, which occurred during a very high-speed chase involving the insured and a Sûreté du Québec officer.
