Indiana Supreme Court Finds Pollution Exclusion is Still Ambiguous!

Congratulations to Sean Hirschten for a win before the Indiana Supreme Court in State Automobile Mutual Insurance Company v. Flexdar, Inc.  Sean worked with George Plews and Jeff Featherstun on this case, which has a significant impact on the practice of environemntal law in Indiana.  The Indiana Supreme Court held that the absolute pollution exclusion in insurance policies is still ambiguous and does not bar insurance coverage for environmental cleanups.  

Stay tuned for a lengthier discussion of the impact of this decision, but I wanted to get an initial shout out to Sean!
