Property Damage
Stewart Enterprises, Inc. v. RSUI Indemnity Co., 614 F.3d 117 (5th Cir. 2010), our client had sued its second-layer excess insurer, seeking reimbursement for property damage and other losses suffered in Hurricane Katrina. On cross-motions for partial summary judgment, the district court ruled that the policy covered the risk of flood but that the policy’s anti-concurrent causation clause (“the ACC clause”) limited the flood coverage. The district court certified its ruling for appeal sua sponte under Fed. R. Civ. P. 54(b), and both parties appealed. Our brief presented a clear explanation of the complicated relationship between the policy’s ACC clause and its flood sublimit. The Fifth Circuit ruled in our client’s favor, finding that the ACC clause limited coverage only after the full amount of the flood sublimit had been exhausted.
