- concluding insurer had not made “partial payment” under the statute because it “did not pay or tender anything to the Plaintiffs within the statutory deadline ” (emphasis added)
- outlining that “findings of fact [at a bench trial] are reviewed for clear error”
- affirming finding that plaintiffs who had “never officially submitted” a “supplemental contents list” to insurer had not provided satisfactory proof of loss
- finding a “battle of the experts” from engineers who offered differing views as to what ultimately destroyed the home at issue
