121752P.pdf 08/29/2013 Land O'Lakes, Inc. v. Employers Insurance Company
U.S. Court of Appeals Case No: 12-1752
U.S. District Court for the District of Minnesota - Minneapolis
[PUBLISHED] [Smith, Author, with Melloy and Benton, Circuit Judges]
Civil case - Insurance. District court did not err in concluding that a
letter the EPA sent the insured in 2011 informing it that the EPA
considered it a Potentially Responsible Party in connection with an
environmental cleanup constituted a suit for purposes of determining
whether the insured's breach of contract action against the insurer was
barred by the applicable statute of limitations; the insured's costs to
remediate the site fall within the "owned-property" exclusion in the
policy at issue.
