How courts have described this case

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

• defining the “costs” that are “inherently require[d]” for replacement cost coverage as “expenses incurred by the insured in obtaining the replacement” without reference to any adjustment
• “Replacement cost coverage inherently requires a replacement ... and costs (expenses incurred by the insured in obtaining the replacement) (emphasis added)
• reasonable to deny recovery of replacement costs where insured is not going to replace property as he would profit from his loss
• new structure did not “replace” insured’s home where insured did not live there
• “Replacement cost coverage inherently requires a replacement (a substitute structure for the insured) and costs (expenses incurred by the insured in obtaining the replacement); without them, the replacement cost provision becomes a mere wager.”
