Third Circuit Affirms Judgment for Client

The Third Circuit Court of Appeals has affirmed the judgment of a Virgin Islands district court judge for the firm’s client, Lexington Insurance Company. The Third Circuit agreed that Lexington did not breach its contract with an insured by filing an interpleader action rather than paying the policy limits to the insured over another insured’s objection. Mark Cohen represented Lexington. See HOVENSA LLC v. Lexington Ins. Co., 2011 WL 2631855 (3d Cir. July 6, 2011).
