What are some scenarios in which a life insurance claim is denied due to issues with a divorce decree?

While there can be many reasons for a life insurance claim to be denied due to issues with a divorce decree, here are some possible scenarios:

The beneficiary named in the policy was not updated following a divorce, and the ex-spouse is still listed as the beneficiary.
The policy was taken out during the marriage, but the beneficiary was never updated following the divorce.
The divorce decree requires the policyholder to maintain life insurance coverage with their ex-spouse as the beneficiary, but they fail to do so.
The divorce decree requires the policyholder to maintain a certain amount of coverage, but they fail to do so.
The policyholder designates a new beneficiary after the divorce, but the divorce decree requires the ex-spouse to remain as the beneficiary.
The divorce decree requires the policyholder to obtain their ex-spouse's consent before making any changes to the policy, but they fail to do so.
The policyholder fraudulently misrepresents their marital status when applying for the policy, which may void the policy entirely.
The policyholder fails to disclose their divorce when applying for the policy, which may void the policy entirely.
The policyholder fails to provide a copy of the divorce decree to the insurance company upon request.
The policyholder violates a court order related to the life insurance policy or the divorce decree.
The ex-spouse contests the life insurance claim, arguing that they are entitled to a portion of the policy proceeds as part of the divorce settlement.
The policyholder fails to comply with any requirements in the divorce decree related to the life insurance policy, such as maintaining a certain amount of coverage or designating a specific beneficiary.
The policyholder fails to pay the premiums on the policy after the divorce, causing the policy to lapse or be terminated.
The divorce decree requires the policyholder to obtain life insurance coverage, but they fail to do so.
The divorce decree specifies that the ex-spouse is entitled to a portion of the policy proceeds only in certain circumstances, such as if they are still dependent on the policyholder, and those circumstances are not met.
The divorce decree is found to be fraudulent or invalid, which could impact any provisions related to the life insurance policy.
The divorce decree is ambiguous or unclear regarding the life insurance policy, leading to disputes between the beneficiaries.
The ex-spouse is named as the beneficiary on multiple policies, and there are discrepancies or conflicts between the policies or the divorce decree.
The policyholder fails to notify the insurance company of any changes to the divorce decree that could impact the policy or the beneficiary designation.
The policyholder and their ex-spouse reconcile, and the ex-spouse becomes entitled to the policy proceeds once again, but the beneficiary designation is never updated.
