Hornblower Yachts v. Brown & Brown Ins. Services C
Respondent Hornblower Yachts, LLC (Hornblower) offers tours and cruises in California. Respondent Alcatraz Cruises, LLC (Alcatraz) is a concessioner to the National Park Service, offering transportation to Alcatraz Island. Hornblower is described as Alcatraz’s parent company.
Sitzmann Morris & Lavis (SML) became the insurance broker for Hornblower in 1997 and for Alcatraz in 2013. Appellants Bill Lavis and John Rogers worked as brokers for SML. After SML was sold to Brown & Brown Insurance Services (Brown & Brown) in November 2011, Lavis and Rogers became employees of Brown & Brown, but the brokerage continued to operate using SML’s name for several years.
At issue here is the extent to which appellants should be liable for respondents’ failure to comply in specified years with two ordinances of the City and County of San Francisco (City): the Health Care Accountability Ordinance (HCAO) and the Health Care Security Ordinance (HCSO).
