Syllabus

The trial court properly found that insured is not entitled to insurance coverage under commercial general liability policy because the claims asserted against the insured are either barred under the policy's contractual liability exclusion or are not cognizable pursuant to the economic-loss doctrine. However, the trial court erred in granting summary judgment to the insurance company, because the insured is entitled to coverage and a defense under the terms of an umbrella policy.
