Moholland v. Empire Fire & Marine Insurance
Supreme Judicial Court of Maine
1Opinion of the CourtWathen, C.J.
[¶ 1] William Moholland appeals from a judgment entered in Superior Court (Washington County, Mead, J.) in an action against his underinsured motorist insurance carrier, Empire Fire & Marine Insurance Co. (Empire). Although he obtained a judgment against Empire, Mohol-land contends that the court erred when it refused to award him costs, prejudgment interest, and post-judgment interest on the ground that Empire’s total exposure could not exceed the liability limits in his policy. We agree that Moholland is entitled to costs and post-judgment interest and vacate that part of the judgment.
