XL Specialty Ins. Co. v. Bollinger, No. 14-31283 (5th Cir. 2015)
Annotate this CaseBollinger filed suit against its insurers, seeking to enforce the parties' insurance contract after the United States sued Bollinger over a multimillion dollar contract to upgrade Coast Guard vessels. The district court granted summary judgment for the insurers. The court concluded that the contract between the parties did not require XL to defend Bollinger from the claims the United States brought, and Continental’s excess policy cannot give rise to coverage. The court declined to reach Bollinger's numerous other arguments raised on appeal. Accordingly, the court affirmed the judgment.
