1Opinion of the Court
JENNIFER WALKER ELROD, Circuit Judge:
This insurance coverage case arises out of an underlying personal injury lawsuit brought by Michael Parr against Gilbane Building Company. Gilbane, a general contractor, sought defense and indemnification from Admiral Insurance Company based on an insurance policy held by Empire Steel Erectors, a subcontractor. On cross-motions for summary judgment, the district court determined that Admiral owed a duty to defend and indemnify. We REVERSE the summary judgment on the duty to defend and AFFIRM the judgment on the duty to indemnify.
