Supreme Court To Revisit Insurance Coverage for Construction
Defects in South Carolina
Following the South Carolina Supreme Court's 2005 landmark
decision in LJ vs. Bituminous Fire & Marine Insurance Company
where the Court found no insurance coverage was provided to
a general contractor on a roadway project for work performed by
subcontractors which caused damage to the roadway, the issue of
when a general contractor might have coverage was, at best,
unclear. Since 2005, numerous decisions have been rendered by
state and federal trial courts throughout the state attempting
to interpret and clarify the South Carolina Supreme Court's
LJ decision. Some have found insurance coverage to exist
while others have not. The Supreme Court is poised to revisit
its LJ decision during its January 2008 term. ElmoreWall
has analyzed the trial court decisions rendered since 2005 and
the current status of cases dealing with the issue pending
before the state and federal courts.
