Allstate Indemnity Co. v. Denison
Court of Appeals of Georgia
1DissentDeen, Presiding Judge
I agree with the trial court’s conclusion that Denison’s injury grew out of his “use” of his van within the contemplation of the defined coverage. “ ‘Use’ while an admittedly elusive term, may be defined as ‘to employ for some purpose.’ [Cit.]” Rustin v. State Farm &c. Ins. Co., 254 Ga. 494, 495 (1) (330 SE2d 356) (1985). “This court has adopted a liberal definition of the word ‘use.’ ” Ga. Farm &c. Ins. Co. v. Greene, 174 Ga. App. 120, 122 (329 SE2d 204) (1985). Therefore, in my view the position taken by this court in Kicklighter v. Allstate Ins. Co., 175 Ga. App. 586, 591 (333 SE2d 670)…
