Summary Of Federal Insurance Co. V. Coast Converters, Inc., 130 Nev. Adv. Op. 95, Christian Spaulding

Nevada Supreme Court Summaries

In a dispute between an insured manufacturer and its insurer, the Supreme Court determined that contract interpretation is a question of law, which should be decided by the district court. Further, to determine which policy limit applies, the court must determine on what date the loss became manifest. The manifestation date is generally a question of fact to be decided by the jury, which the district court will apply and determine, as a matter of law, which policy limit applies.
