Is there any case dealing with the duty of an insurer to indemnify an insured?
British Columbia, Canada
The following excerpt is from Kirkpatrick v. Budget Rent-a-Car of Victoria Ltd., 1998 CanLII 5068 (BC SC):
Amos v. Insurance Corp. of British Columbia (1995), 1995 CanLII 66 (SCC), 10 B.C.L.R. (3d) 1 (S.C.C.) is also a case dealing with the duty of the insurer to indemnify an insured and does not consider the duty to defend. However, it is helpful since it refines the reasoning in Stevenson.
