Lagestee-Mulder, Inc. v. Consolidated Insurance

Court of Appeals for the Seventh Circuit

Decided June 26, 2012No. 11-3730PublishedCited by 39 opinions

1Opinion of the Court

FLAUM, Circuit Judge.

This case presents a question under Illinois insurance law governing an insurer’s duty to defend under a commercial general liability policy. Appellant argues that Consolidated Insurance Company breached its duty to defend by rejecting appellant’s tender of defense regarding a state court action brought in Illinois. The underlying suit eventually settled, and appellant now seeks indemnification. The district court found that Consolidated Insurance Company had no duty to defend because the underlying complaint failed to allege damage to any covered property. We affirm.
