Revised opinion about 8-corners rule and property damage

March 8, 2013

The Court released a revised opinion in PPI Technologies v. Liberty Mutual, which continues to affirm the dismissal of a coverage case for inadequate allegations of property damage.  No. 12-40189 (March 1, 2013, unpublished).  The opinion is now unpublished, contains a footnote stating: “Our holding is not intended to alter Texas pleading standards,” and discusses the allegations in Twombly-like language, stating: “The allegations in the underlying lawsuits are either for economic damages, and thus not covered, or are legal conclusions, rather than factual allegations as required.”
