MR. PANOSH: Ms. Mize, please. Ms. Wanda Mize, please come up. WANDA JEAN MIZE, being first duly sworn, testified as follows during DIRECT EXAMINATION by MR. PANOSH: Q Would you state your name, please. A Wanda Jean Mize. Q Ms. Mize, where do you work? A I work for Life of Georgia and for Southland Life. Q And your position with Life of Georgia is? A I'm a senior claims examiner in the individual life claims department. Q And are part of your duties to handle telephone inquiries by individuals who are customers of those two insurance companies? A Yes, sir. Q On or about May the 7th of 1996, did you receive a telephone conversation from Mr. Theodore Kimble? A Yes, I did. Q Would you relate that to the jury, please. MR. LLOYD: Object, Your Honor. 1007 THE COURT: Overruled. Q Tell the jury what you remember. A Just that the phone call, the basis was to check the status of the claim, and to tell us that he was now cleared as a suspect, and that we should go ahead and process the claim at that point. Q And the claim referred to the $100,000 insurance that Mr. Hendrix just previously testified to? A Yes, sir. Q What action did you take? A At that point, told him that we would have to verify that with the sheriff's department in Guilford County. Q And what action did you take, please? A Then I turned around and called the investigator that I had talked to before, and left him a voice mail message to call me back and let me know where the investigation stood. Q And did he eventually call you back? A Yes, he did. Q As a result of the information received, did you pay the claims? A No, sir. MR. PANOSH: No further questions. MR. LLOYD: No questions, Your Honor. THE COURT: Step down, ma'am. MR. PANOSH: Your Honor, we'd ask that Ms. Mize 1008 and Mr. Hendrix be excused, so they can return to their duties. THE COURT: Any objection? MR. LLOYD: No objection, Your Honor. THE COURT: You may be excused. (The witness left the witness stand.)
