THIS
MORNING, A SHARPLY DIVIDED TEXAS SUPREME COURT REVERSED
ITSELF
and
held that excess insurers that disputed policy coverage but settled a
claim
against an insured don't have a right to reimbursement for the
settlement costs
from the insured if the policy does not grant that right. All Texas
defense lawyers go to happy hour early. Excess
Underwriters at
Lloyd.s, London, et al. v. Frank.s Casing Crew & Rental Tools Inc
(Tex. Feb
1, 2008).
We
will cover this and other big time reversals at our lucky 13th
Annual
Ultimate Claims Handling Seminar on October 10, 2008 at CityPlace
Conference
Center in Dallas, Texas. Mark your calendar.
