Does anyone know about the ERISA or ERITHA law or act????

Question

My fatehrs will was out of Wayne County (DetroiT), Michigan. I am trying to find out about contesting an insurance payout from a Federal Life Insurance company (OFEGLI). I am trying to get the policy paid to the estate since my father neglected to fill out thebeneficiary forms or what not. Do I need to go through Wayne County corts to try to stop payment until further investigation or is it a Superior Court matter. This is being disputed because the insurnce company wants to pay my half brothers equal parts when my fathers wishes were different. I am more concerned with the answer to which court I need to try to do this through than your opinion on whether or not you think I have a good case since I've already asked on thi\e matter of that. However any opinion is appreciated on any part. Thank you for your time!!

Answer 1

1)  If your father failed to fill out the beneficiary forms, then the proceeds are paid according to the wording of the policy.

2)  As such, you don't have a good case to successfully contest this payout.  

3)  ERISA has nothing to do with your dispute.
