Client’s Motion for Summary Judgment Granted

Rina Carmel obtained a significant victory for her insurer client when a bankruptcy court granted a motion for summary judgment in an interpleader adversary proceeding.  The court ruled that the insurer had interpleaded more than the remaining amount of covered repairs following a wildfire, the insurer did not act in bad faith, and no one else had any claim to the policy proceeds.
