Starr Indemnity & Liability Insurance Co., v. American Commercial Barge Line, LLC

Year: 2025
Court: Indiana Court of Appeals
Case Number: 25A-PL-01073

In its amicus brief, United Policyholders argues against the application of federal admiralty law relating to insurance claims of a nonmarine nature. Insurance policies that provide broad-based and nonmarine coverages that are clearly distinct and separate from other covered maritime risks as a general rule should not be subject to admiralty jurisdiction.
