Certain Underwriters at Lloyd’s London, et al. v. The Sherwin-Williams Company

Year: 2023
Court: Supreme Court of Ohio
Case Number: 2023-0255

In its amicus curiae brief, United Policyholders addresses whether an insured, Sherwin-Williams, is entitled to coverage for its portion of a lead paint settlement. The coverage dispute turns on issues of whether the insured “expected or intended” property damage to occur from its sale of paint and whether money the insured paid into a fund to remediate homes contaminated by lead paint constitutes “damages” “because of’ or “on account of” bodily injury and property damage.
