Second DCA Summary Judgment Affirmed – First Party Motorcycle Coverage Claim

Sharon Degnan, of the Orlando office, prevailed in an appeal before the Second District Court of Appeal in an insurance coverage case where the insureds sought coverage for damages sustained to their motorcycle, when they were required to lay the motorcycle down on the highway after a tire failure. The insureds motorcycle policy did not carry collision coverage, therefore they tried to argue that coverage was available under the policy’s comprehensive coverage provision. After the trial court granted the insurer’s summary judgment motion, which was drafted and argued by Sharon and Angela C. Agostino, of the Fort Myers office, the insureds appealed. The appellate court affirmed the entry of summary judgment and agreed that no insurance coverage was available for the loss under the motorcycle policy’s comprehensive coverage.
