Indiana Insurance v. Farmers Insurance of Columbus, Inc.
Indiana Insurance v. Farmers Insurance of Columbus, Inc.
Opinion of the Court
{¶ 1} The motions for this court to reconsider the judgment entries in Indiana Ins. Co. v. Farmers Ins. of Columbus, 100 Ohio St.3d 1547, 2003-Ohio-6879, 800
Concurring Opinion
concurring.
{¶ 2} I concur with the decision to deny reconsideration. However, as I stated in my concurring opinion in Fish v. Ohio Cas. Ins. Co., 101 Ohio St.3d 1210, 2004-Ohio-224, 802 N.E.2d 149, I believe that Westfield Ins. Co. v. Galatis, 100 Ohio St.3d 216, 2003-Ohio-5849, 797 N.E.2d 1256, applies to all pending cases where a claim has been raised under Scott-Pontzer v. Liberty Mut. Fire Ins. Co. (1999), 85 Ohio St.3d 660, 710 N.E.2d 1116. Here, the appellate court has remanded the case to the trial court for further proceedings on the issue of an award of prejudgment interest. A remand of these proceedings, however, should include application of Galatis.
