A life insurance company is asking a judge to decide whether any of Josh Powell’s relatives are entitled to collect on a $1.5 million policy after he killed himself and his two sons in a house fire last month.
In a complaint filed in U.S. District Court in Tacoma, New York Life says it received inquiries from Powell’s sister and brother about how to make a claim on the policy. The complaint does not say that the siblings have actually filed any such claims.
