Consolidated Edison Company vs. Allstate Insurance Company

Year: 2000
Court: New York State Court of Appeals
Case Number: Motion No. 956/01

Insurance companies must pay the entire sum of any liability caused by an accident or occurrence so long as the accident or occurrence causes bodily injury or property damage within the policy period. Insurers cannot escape liability by attempting to limit their obligation to property damage alone.
