7th Circuit strips judgment for Emmis, rules for insurer
Katie Stancombe for www.theindianalwyer.com
A federal appeals court reversed a breach-of-contract ruling for media company Emmis Communications Corp. arising from a shareholder dispute. The 7th Circuit Court of Appeals ruled the district court should have found in favor of Emmis’ insurer instead.
Indianapolis-based Emmis sued Illinois National Insurance Co. when the latter refused to pay up on a directors and officers liability insurance policy pruchased by Emmis to cover a period from Oct. 1, 2011 to Oct. 1, 2012. Emmis sought more than $4 million in legal fees that its insurer refused to cover.
That policy had an exclusion for any losses in connection with events that included “[a]ll notices of claim of circumstances as reported under policy 8181â€0068 issued to Emmis Corporation by Chubb Insurance Companies,†Emmis’ prior directors and officers liability insurance provider.
When three shareholders sued to stop Emmis from gaining control of its shares to go private, and Illinois National subsequently refused coverage, Emmis sought damages for breach of contract and breach of the duty of good faith and fair dealing.
Both parties sought summary judgment from the Southern District Court in Indianapolis. Emmis argued that coverage was appropriate, and Illinois National argued that the policy’s complex exclusion provisions prevented coverage. Illinois National further contended that the “as reported†provision excluded all notices that were reported to Chubb at any time, including the suit giving rise to this litigation.
However, Emmis claimed that it excluded only those notices that had been reported at the time that the policy went into effect two years prior to reported notice. The Southern District Court ultimately granted judgment in Emmis’ favor, concluding that while both interpretations of the term were reasonable, Emmis’ was better.
“The court thought that the past tense of ‘as reported’ must ‘refer[] to events that had already occurred at the time of drafting.’ It bolstered its holding by invoking the rule favoring coverage when multiple reasonable readings of an insurance policy might apply,†the 7th Circuit.
But the appellate court found the entire case could be resolved on the single issue of the meaning of “as reported.†It disagreed with the district court, finding Illinois National’s proposed interpretation to be correct.
“The phrase has no discernable temporal limitations. Once Emmis or one of its agents reports a claim to Chubb, at any time, then that claim is ‘reported’ — and so is excluded. The timing of the report is irrelevant,†Circuit Judge Amy Coney Barrett wrote for the panel.
“Emmis acknowledged in its brief that it did in fact report its claim to Chubb. That resolves our inquiry,†the panel continued. “The exclusion applies, so summary judgment should have been entered in favor of Illinois National.â€
The 7th Circuit thus reversed and remanded Emmis Communications Corporation v. Illinois National Insurance Co., 18-3392 for proceedings.

JUST IN: ALEX SCHMITT REJECTS GOP CHAIRMAN PARKES CALL FOR HIS WITHDRAW FROM RACE
LEADING GOP PRIMARY AT-LARGE Â CITY COUNCIL FRONT RUNNER REJECTS GOP CHAIRMAN WITHDRAWER REQUESTÂ
Wayne,
Requesting that I withdraw my candidacy for City Council At-Large is an odd stance to take given that I received the most votes for any Republican Primary candidate not named Lloyd Winnecke; out of the paltry voter turnout of 2,226 Republican votes, I received 70% of the vote. I won my Primary race with the widest margin of victory of any City Council race of either party and single-handedly raised more than double the funds of any City Council candidate.  Not only have I received an outpouring of support from the Vanderburgh County Republican Party (the Precinct Committeemen that actually make up the County Committee) but also from actual Republican voters who nominated me as their top candidate for this office. Â
Â
One would assume a Chairman, whose primary function is to support winning Republican candidates, would be able to recognize my value to the organization you represent and its goals. It is obvious that you do not possess the mental faculties to make the best decisions on behalf of the Party, and thus lack the capacity to serve as Chairman. As such, pursuant to Indiana Republican Party Rules 1-18 and 1-36, I encourage you to resign as Chairman. Further, by not supporting my candidacy, you are in violation of Rules 1-25, 1-24, and 4-11; thus falling out of good standing as a Party Officer. For your violation of those rules, I further encourage your resignation as Chairman.  Not only would it be in the best interest of the local party, but in the best interests of the citizens of the City of Evansville and Vanderburgh County as a whole.
Â
Finally, Indiana law requires that my candidacy for party affiliation is based on my voting in the last primary election, and the voters of Evansville are the ones who chose me as their candidate. Therefore, you have absolutely no authority in this matter and I decline your request. I look forward to my campaign producing another strong victory in November so that Evansville can continue to move forward. In the meantime, please do not contact me.

Late home run by Grizzlies hurts Otters
The Evansville Otters suffered a 5-3 loss to the Gateway Grizzlies Tuesday as a three-run home run by Gateway’s Dustin Woodcock produced a comeback win for the Grizzlies.
The Grizzlies opened the scoring in the bottom of the first inning with runners on first and second. Luis Roman smacked a two-run double for Gateway to give the Grizzlies a 2-0 lead.
The Otters responded in the top of the second to tie the game.
All-Star catcher Rob Calabrese led off the inning with a single.
Two batters later, Hunter Cullen ripped a double to the outfield, moving Calabrese to third, putting runners on first and second with one out.
With two outs, David Cronin smacked an RBI single to right field, scoring Calabrese, cutting the Grizzlies lead in half.
Keith Grieshaber, the next batter, rocketed a single to left field, scoring Cullen to tie the game at two.
Both teams would remain scoreless in the third, fourth, and fifth innings, but the Otters would break the 2-2 tie in the top of the sixth.
Jack Meggs led off with a single and was followed by Hunter Cullen who was hit by the pitch.
J.J. Gould laid a successful sac bunt to move Meggs and Cullen to second and third with one out, setting up another big spot for Cronin.
Cronin then walked to force the bases loaded with one out in the top of the sixth.
That would force Gateway to pull starter Dominic Topoozian, who earned a no-decision, throwing 5.1 innings, allowing three runs on seven hits with two strikeouts.
The third earned run came from the bat of Greishaber, hitting a sac fly to left field that scored Meggs, giving the Otters a 3-2 lead.
In the bottom of the sixth with two outs and two men on, Tyler Beardsley threw his last of eight strikeouts to get out of a jam. The reigning Frontier League Pitcher of the Week tossed six strong innings, allowing two runs on three hits, and unfortunately earning a no-decision.
Otters reliever Drew Beyer threw a scoreless seventh inning but could not shut down the Grizzlies in the eighth.
Connor Owings led off the bottom of the eighth with a single.
Two batters later, Roman singled, putting runners on first and second with one out.
After Andrew Daniel struck out looking, Dustin Woodcock crushed his three-run home run over the porch in right-centerfield, his first hit of the game, pushing the Grizzlies in front 5-3.
Grizzlies reliever Grant Black came on in the ninth and retired the Otters in order, earning the save.
