Owner’s Insurance Company v. Jim Carr Homebuilder et al.

Year: 2014
Court: Alabama Supreme Court
Case Number: 1120764

In a recent decision, the Alabama Supreme Court left the ranks of the outlier courts, holding that faulty workmanship can be a covered “occurrence” under Commercial General Liability insurance policies. The insurer has filed a petition for re-hearing, which UP opposes. Read a recent decision with a similar holding from the 10th Circuit Court of Appeals.

UP’s brief was authored pro bono by Carl A. Salisbury, Esq. and Thomas H. Christopher, Esq. of Kilpatrick, Townsend, and Stockton, LLP.
