No bodily injury from staying the same size

The district court and Fifth Circuit agreed that fraud claims by dissatisfied consumers of weight loss medicine did not allege “bodily injury” so as to trigger a duty to defend.  CSA Nutraceuticals v. Chubb Custom Insurance, No. 12-10137 (Jan. 2, 2013, unpublished): “Failing to achieve weight reduction means the body basically did not change. It does not mean that the body was injured.”  The short opinion summarizes and rejects the plaintiff′s arguments for coverage.
