Ho Bros. Restaurant v. Aetna Cas. & Sur. Co.

Supreme Court of Alabama

Decided June 27, 1986No. 85-21PublishedCited by 16 opinions

1Opinion of the Court

This appeal originated from a complaint for declaratory judgment and for damages from a breach of contract filed by Ho Brothers Restaurant, Inc., as owner of the China Star Restaurant in Gulf Shores ("the Restaurant") against Aetna Casualty Surety Company ("Aetna"). The Restaurant appeals from the trial court's order denying its own motion for summary judgment and granting Aetna's motion for summary judgment based on a provision in the insurance policy excluding coverage for "property held by the insured for sale or entrusted to the insured for storage or safekeeping." We reverse and remand.
