Opinion
BRUINIERS, J.
Appellant Lucia Lopez Dominguez (Dominguez), injured in an automobile accident, brought an action for declaratory relief challenging the enforceability of provisions in an automobile insurance policy limiting liability coverage for permissive users. She appeals an adverse judgment1 in favor of respondent Financial Indemnity Company (FIC) following a bench trial. We conclude, as did the trial court, that the disputed policy provisions are sufficiently conspicuous, plain and clear and are enforceable. We therefore affirm.
