Posted on July 5, 2010

Attorneys Suzanne Lambdin and Stephanie Montague obtained summary  judgment in favor of Fire Insurance Exchange. The court determined as a matter of  law that the damage  caused by a methamphetamine lab was not covered under the  vandalism peril in the insured’s renters policy. Additionally, the court determined that  the Pollution Exclusion in the renters policy precluded coverage for the claimed  damages caused by methamphetamine.
