AIG Premier Insurance v. RLI Insurance

How courts have described this case

Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.

• noting that “shall not contribute” language is not distorted if treated as equal to another excess clause without such language and enforcing mutual repugnancy between two similar clauses
• rejecting argument that, under Florida law, one excess clause could be “excess to all other excess insurance”
• comparing Florida law with New York law, which does allow for departure from ratable contribution when it would distort plain meaning
• “The delivery of the policy can constitute the ‘last act’ necessary to execute a contract.”
