Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit

1Opinion of the Court

REAVLEY, Circuit Judge:

In this appeal involving an insurance dispute both the plaintiff and defendant appeal rulings by the district court. We conclude that there was no error in the district court’s order granting a new trial, or its determination that the jury’s damage award was covered under the applicable insurance policy, but we conclude that the district court incorrectly determined that the plaintiffs attorney’s fees were not covered by the policy. We therefore AFFIRM in part and REVERSE in part the district court’s judgment and REMAND for further proceedings.
