Jury Verdict/Result: Court verdict for CIGNA

Case Name: A Insurance Carrier @ v. CIGNA

Description: In an earlier underlying case entitled Davis v. Acme, the defendant, represented by our firm, was found not to be responsible for injury to the plaintiff. A co-defendant which bore a portion of the verdict result brought litigation against our client = s insurer, CIGNA, on an indemnity and "other insurance" clause in the contract and insuring agreements. This involved presentation of coverage and interpretation to the court for ultimate determination. The court decision was in our client's favor.
