Stati Uniti – Il tribunale stabilisce che Snoqualmie Indian Tribe è idonea per i pagamenti per la chiusura del COVID

The Snoqualmie Indian Tribe will be paid business interruption insurance via its policy with FM Global for losses accrued through the COVID-closures, according to a court ruling in a Washington state.

The tribe had a $150m ‘all-risk’ policy and so subsequently filed a claim with Affiliated FM but was told the insurance would only cover the $100,000 sublimit within the policy’s communicable disease section as there was no physical loss or damage to the casinos.

The judge ruled: “Because the phrase ‘all risks of physical loss or damage’ is stated in the disjunctive, the term ‘physical loss’ must mean something other than ‘damage’.”
