Landmark American Insurance Company v. Pin-Pon Corporation and Lexington Insurance Company
District Court of Appeal of Florida
1Opinion of the CourtTaylor, J.
Appellant Landmark American Insurance Company, an excess insurer, appeals an amended final judgment awarding the insured, Pin-Pon Corporation, over $5.8 million for breach of the excess insurance policy. The insurance claims arose from extensive hurricane damage to the insured’s hotel as a result of Hurricanes Frances and Jeanne. We reject Landmark’s argument concerning the proper interpretation of the primary policy. We reverse, however, for a new trial as to code upgrade damages, concluding that the trial court erred in admitting the insured’s Exhibit 98 as a business record.1
