Court of Appeals of Kansas.

Opinion filed April 19, 1996.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

David M. Traster and Stephen M. Kerwick, of Foulston & Siefkin L.L.P., of Wichita, for appellant.

No appearance by appellee.

Before RULON, P.J., ROYSE, J., and STEPHEN D. HILL, District Judge, assigned.


RULON, J.:

Ray Winger, M.D., defendant, appeals an order of the district court approving a settlement agreement between his malpractice insurer and the plaintiff. Defendant argues the court erred in approving the settlement because his insurance policy did not expressly grant the insurer the right to settle without defendant's approval and he expressly objected to the settlement. We reverse and remand with directions.
