Our firm represented the insurance companies, Menora Mivtachim, The Phoenix, and Eliyahu, in a Petition for the Certification of an Action as a Class Action dealing with the liability of insurance companies to reimburse employers for amounts in respect of “injury benefits” that have been paid by them to the National Insurance Institute for the first 12 days of leave of employees who take leave from their work as a result of a work accident, based on Section 328 of the National Insurance Law.
Upon the commencement of the proceedings, the Petitioners against The Phoenix and Eliyahu withdrew from the action.
This week, a well-reasoned judgment was handed down by the Central District Court (the Honorable Judge Y. Keinar) denying the Petition for Certification, while allowing all of Menora’s grounds and while ordering the Petitioners to bear the court costs.
