Comment:
Payment to the agent is payment to the company IF THE AGENT ACCEPTS THE PAYMENT. Did the agent "accept" the payment becuase someone slipped it through a mail slot? I thought mail slots and mail boxes were off limits to any but USPS. These folks hand-delivered a payment and only they know when it was delivered. If it was delivered to the agents office on Sunday, it was already TOO LATE. They knew when the payment was due - now they want someone else to pay for their mistake.

"...it is finally good to see an agent get sued for something..." It is obvious that you know nothing about the insurance industry. Agents get sued regularly, winning most of the suits becuase they are battling folks who know next to nothing about insurance and are spurred on by scum-sucking, bottom-dwelling ambulance chasers.
