How courts have described this case

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

• determining that an order directing an insurer to pay defense expenses was enforceable by contempt
• finding that because a subsequent order “substantially changed the terms and force of the injunction as it stood . . . the change was a modification, not a mere clarification” and was “therefore appealable under 28 U.S.C. § 1292(a)(1)”
• analyzing the terms of the insurance policy at issue and finding “no language in the policy stating that [the insurer] will defend any claims”
• affirming district court's order that insurer pay insured's defense costs after the district court had held insurer's rescission action \in abeyance\
• exercising jurisdiction over district court order “direct[ing] [insurer] to pay defense expenses in [a particular] litigation as they were incurred”
• finding no duty to defend in a directors’ and 13 officers’ policy where “[t]here is no language in the policy stating that [the insurer] will 14 defend any claims”
