Indiana Court of Appeals
William Hoppe, as Father and Natural Guardian of Madison Hoppe, a Minor, and Shellie and Christopher Knoll v. Safeco Insurance Company of Indiana
21A-PL-73
Civil plenary. Affirms the Hamilton Superior Court’s grant of summary judgment in favor of Safeco Insurance Company of Indiana in Safeco’s declaratory judgment action to determine whether it had a duty to indemnify their insureds, Shellie and Christopher Knoll, in a lawsuit filed by William Hoppe, as father and natural guardian of Madison Hoppe, a minor. Finds coverage under the liability section of the homeowner’s insurance policy issued by Safeco to the Knolls does not apply to bodily injury arising from the use of the golf cart. Thus, there’s no coverage under the policy for any entrustment, supervision, act, decision or omission concerning the golf cart. Also finds the trial court properly granted summary judgment to Safeco.
