State Farm Fire & Casualty Insurance v. Miceli

How courts have described this case

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

• plaintiffs were not precluded from recovering after their son vandalized property in the family’s home
• When the defendant denied liability and refused to pay, equitable grounds supported waiving the actual repair condition.
• insurer's denial of liability to pay cost of vandalism because of insurer's belief a member of insured's family had committed the vandalism prevented insureds from complying with the replacement provision
• since only the named insured was required to appear for a deposition, the denial of coverage to the additional insureds for failing to appear for a deposition was error
