8th Circ. Revives HVAC Co. s Bid For Asbestos Suit Coverage
Law360 (May 24, 2021, 9:08 PM EDT) The Eighth Circuit revived an air conditioning company s bid to get coverage from Continental Insurance Co. in asbestos litigation, finding that a district court s omission of a single word led to a faulty ruling that needs further consideration.
