Kaczmarek v. Shoffstall
Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of the State of New York
Decided April 4, 1986PublishedCited by 12 opinions
1Opinion of the Court
— Order unanimously affirmed, with costs. Memorandum: Special Term properly denied the motion of State Farm Insurance Company (defendant’s insurer) to intervene in this action for personal injuries.
The action arose after defendant allegedly poured boiling water on plaintiffs back. Plaintiff sued for personal injuries, alleging separate causes of action for negligence and intentional tort. State Farm disclaimed coverage for liability on the cause of action for intentional tort, but, consistent with the terms of the homeowner’s insurance contract with defendant, has provided him with counsel.
