U.S. Court of Appeals Case No: 10-2761
U.S. District Court for the Western District of Missouri - Kansas City
[PUBLISHED] [Bye, Author, with Colloton and Gruender, Circuit Judges]
Civil case - Insurance. Insurance policy provision which limited
recovery to no more than the insurable interest the insured had in the
covered property at the time of the loss was void as contrary to the public
policy expressed in the Missouri valued policy statute, Mo. Rev. Stat. Sec.
379.140 (2000); alternatively, the provision is ambiguous and cannot be
used to reduce the insured's recovery.
