The Supreme Court of Alaska ruled that an unmarried “spouse” was not covered under an auto insurance policy in Cole v. State Farm Ins. Co., No. S-11460, 2006 WL 204990 ( Alaska Jan.27, 2006).

Homer Cole and Annette Mayac divorced and later got back together, but did not remarry. Cole did not have a driver's license, so their car was registered, titled, and insured in Mayac's name only.
