Description
In this case, we review the trial courts judgment obligating an insurer to cover its insured for an incident which occurred after the policys expiration date. Because the applicable coverage language did not expressly state the covered loss must occur during the policy period, the lower court found the policy ambiguous, construed its language against the insurer, and found coverage. We affirm and write this opinion for two reasons: 1) to once again make clear that insurers must clearly write in their policies what they mean if they wish to avoid findings of ambiguity; and 2) to address Appellants argument that an affirmance would cause an absurd and unreasonable result.
