United Services Automobile Ass'n v. Caplin
Indiana Court of Appeals
1Opinion of the Court
OPINION
ROBERTSON, Judge.
United Services Automobile Association [USAA], an insurance company, appeals the judgment in favor of its insureds, Stephen B. and Bonnie Caplin in the amount of approximately $92,000.00 representing the cost to the Caplins of defending and settling a lawsuit. USAA raises two issues, but because one requires reversal, we address it only. Restated, it is:
whether USAA was required to defend the Caplins in a lawsuit in which the theory of recovery alleged in the complaint sounded exclusively in intentional and actual fraud.
