Insurer Reimbursement in Texas: Important New Developments
In the latest edition of the TEXAS LEGAL LIABILITY ADVISOR, we examine three recent decisions by the Texas Supreme Court regarding insurer reimbursement rights. The most important of these is the decision handed down in the rehearing of Excess Underwriters at Lloyd's London v. Frank's Casing Crew & Rental Tools, Inc. The Court's initial decision in 2005 created a new subrogation right for an insurance carrier against its insured when the carrier pays non-covered liabilityclaims against the insured. In these recent decision, the Court denies the reimbursement right. This edition also explores two other decisions, Fortis Benefits v. Cantu, which concerns the "made whole" doctrine and a health insurers contractual right of subrogation to recover medical expeneses paid to a plaintiff in a personl injury case, and Texas Mutual Ins. Co. v. Ledbetter, which reaffirms a worker's compensation carrier's righ tto reimbursement in third-party actions. Read about these important decisions in the latest edition of the ADVISOR.
