Jeff Siderius was recently successful in obtaining summary judgment against the City of Chicago in Cook County Circuit Court, Chancery Division in an insurance coverage dispute.  The court ruled in favor of our insurance company client, finding it was not required to defend or indemnify the City as an additional insured.  The case involved two serious truck-pedestrian accidents in which trucks were driven by the City’s weed-cutting subcontractor; one of the accidents resulted in the death of a seven year old girl.  The court agreed with our argument that the policy’s described business limitation endorsement unambiguously applied to both the City and its weed-cutting subcontractor, based on admissions obtained in discovery.  The City and its subcontractor elected not to appeal.
