Description

The core issue in this litigation is whether an umbrella-liability insurer has a duty to defend and indemnify its insured when the insured, the primary insurer, and the injured party settle the primary coverage for less than the policy limits. The district court ordered summary judgment against the umbrella insurer, declaring that it was obligated to provide excess coverage for the injured persons claims that exceeded the primary-coverage limit. Because the injured person has not obtained a judgment in excess of the primary coverage and neither the insured nor the primary insurer is a party to this action, the controversy is non-justiciable and the judgment must be vacated.
