Forrest v. Hawaiian Ins. & Guaranty Co. CA2/5
Plaintiff and appellant Richard V. Forrest appeals from the grant of summary judgment in favor of defendant and respondent Hawaiian Insurance & Guaranty Company (Hawaiian). Forrest was involved in a car accident with Hawaiian’s alleged insured, William Olivas. Hawaiian refused to defend Olivas on the basis that his monthly auto liability insurance policy lapsed on January 10, 2004—one day before the accident occurred. After a default judgment was entered in a separate case against Olivas in Forrest’s favor, Olivas assigned Forrest his rights as insured against Hawaiian. Forrest then filed this suit against Hawaiian and others.
