How courts have described this case
Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.
- noting that a pro rata approach \reflects the ratio of [each insurer's] coverage (and thus the premiums it collected) to the total risk\
- holding that insureds are “on the risk for periods of non-coverage”
- declining to “effectively provide insurance coverage to policyholders for years in which no premiums were paid” in part because “the average insured … would not expect to receive coverage without regard to the number of years for which it purchased applicable insurance”
- “the method of allocation is governed foremost by the particular language of the relevant insurance policy”
