DescriptionROME, Italy (Reuters) -- A man given six months to live by his doctors has been told by an Italian court to come back in 14 months to hear the outcome of his demand for insurance damages.

Carmelo Cisabella, 39, has an inoperable spine disease and is anxious to pick up some 450,000 euros ($596,300) in already-agreed damages from his insurers to help ease his final months of life, Il Messaggero newspaper reported on Tuesday.

In a bid to speed up the process, Cisabella turned to the Sicilian courts to put pressure on the slow-moving insurers, but was told to return next year to hear their decision.
