4-MALI LLC v. Bankers Insurance Co.

U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit
4-MALI LLC v. Bankers Insurance Co., 82 F. App'x 970 (5th Cir. 2003)

4-MALI LLC v. Bankers Insurance Co.

Opinion

PER CURIAM. *

4-Mali L.L.C. (“4-Mali”) appeals the district court’s judgment dismissing its complaint claiming flood insurance coverage. The district court held that 4-Mali’s claims were not covered by a Standard Flood Insurance Policy (“SFIP”), and that, in any event, 4-Mali had failed to comply with the SFIP’s procedural requirements. We hold that the district court did not err in finding that 4-Mali’s failure to provide a proof of loss statement within sixty days of the flood precludes coverage. See Gowland v. Aetna, 143 F.3d 951, 953-54 (5th *971 Cir. 1998). As such, we need not evaluate the scope of the SFIP’s coverage. The judgment of the district court is therefore

AFFIRMED.

*

Pursuant to 5th Cir. R. 47.5, the Court has determined that this opinion should not be published and is not precedent except under the limited circumstances set forth in 5th Cir. R. 47.5.4.
