First Catholic Slovak Union of the United States & Canada v. Buckeye Union Insurance

The First Catholic Slovak Union of the United States and Canada, a religious fraternal society, sought reimbursement from the Buckeye Union Insurance Co. and the insurer’s sales agency for $119,500 embezzled by the society’s employee. The insurer maintained that its policy afforded only $25,000 coverage for that loss. The trial court agreed, and the society does not challenge that ruling here. However, the society appeals the ruling that the sales agency did not owe the remaining loss, arguing that the agency negligently failed to provide proper coverage. We affirm the trial court’s judgment.
