July 21, 1998













































Per Curiam. Omar S. Zaki appeals from summary
judgments entered in favor of six insurance companies and
dismissing Zaki's counterclaims. Each insurer was granted
rescission of one or more disability insurance policies issued
to Zaki and, as applicable, Zaki was ordered to repay the
benefits which he received (less premiums paid) under the
policies. Having carefully reviewed the judgments in light of
the extensive briefs and the record, we share the district
court's well-reasoned view that there was no genuine issue of
material fact and that each insurer was entitled to judgment as
a matter of law. The court did not misapply state law, nor did
it misinterpret Zaki's waiver of the policies' incontestability
clauses. There was no relevant factual dispute as to Zaki's
intent.
Affirmed. See Loc. R. 27.1.
