Herll v. Auto-Owners Insurance Co.

The Insurer appealed the district court's grant of summary judgment for the insured in a dispute regarding damage from a hailstorm to windows in the insured's home. An appraisal panel issued an appraisal award but the parties disputed the meaning of the award. The Eighth Circuit held that the appraisal award was ambiguous and the district court should have returned the matter to the appraisal panel for clarification. Accordingly, the court vacated the judgment and remanded. View "Herll v. Auto-Owners Insurance Co." on Justia Law
