JURY FINDS CLAIMS OF REINSURED BARRED BY STATUTE OF LIMITATION
A jury in state court in San Francisco, California has found, by special verdict, that a reinsured waited too long to sue its reinsurer for failure to pay claims under two facultative reinsurance certificates. The jury rejected the contention that the running of the statute of limitation was tolled due to the ongoing investigation and negotiations between the parties. Background on the dispute is found in the Complaint. Transport Insurance Company v. TIG Insurance Company, No. CGC-06-448898 (Cal. Super. Ct. June 9, 2008).
