Reliable Furniture Co. v. Fidelity & Guaranty Insurance Underwriters, Inc.

HENRIOD, Chief Justice.

Appeal from a summary judgment in favor of defendant Fidelity. Affirmed with costs to Fidelity.

Fidelity paid a claim for loss by fire under an insurance policy, in the exact amount asked. Plaintiff asserts, however, that doing so, Fidelity colluded, through an adjuster jointly employed, with another carrier insuring against loss of business, to coerce plaintiff in accepting a sum it deemed insufficient for the latter coverage. Plaintiff accepted the amount it asked from Fidelity and also the amount offered by the insurer for loss of business.

We see nothing in the record…
