Noren v. Metropolitan Property & Casualty Insurance

Defendant-appellant Metropolitan Property and Casualty Insurance Company appeals from several orders of the circuit court in favor of plaintiffs-appellees Mary and Glen Noren. On appeal, defendant contends the circuit court erred by: (1) denying defendant’s motion for summary judgment; (2) striking defendant’s jury demand; (3) denying defendant’s motion for a directed verdict; and (4) declaring coverage in favor of plaintiffs. We reverse the judgment of the circuit court because we find that the court erred in striking defendant’s jury demand.
