[REPLAY] The Coverage Contrarian: CGL Coverage for Engine Servicing and Workmanship

For the next two weeks over the holidays, we're going to feature some excellent podcasts from before we rebranded as "What's the Scenario? with PLRB." These segments were called "The Coverage Contrarian," and they featured PLRB coverage attorneys Michele Hunter, Eric Friedmann, and Frank Gagliardi as they argued vociferously about coverage issues big and small. This week, we'll explore the scenario of an insured repair business that repaired a valve on a large boat so poorly that the whole engine was damaged. Let's listen in. Key Takeaways The critical inquiry in a defective or faulty workmanship case is, the scope of the insured's agreed upon, contracted work. Under the majority view, the damage to the engine would likely be considered damage to other property, because the insured was not hired to work on the whole engine itself. Under the minority view, working on an interconnected part of an engine would be considered working on the engine as a whole.
