Broussard v. Progressive Security Insurance Co.
Louisiana Court of Appeal
1Opinion of the Court
AMY, Judge.
|, The plaintiffs pursued damages following an automobile accident in which their vehicle was struck by a truck involved in transporting material for another dirt works business. The plaintiffs sought damages from, among others, the hiring dirt works business and its insurer. The trial court ultimately entered summary judgment in favor of the plaintiffs, finding that the hiring business’s insurance policy provided coverage to the driver insofar as he was driving a hired and/or nonowned automobile. The dirt works business and its insurer appeal. For the following reasons, we reverse.
