J.T.W. v. Ctr. Ins. Co., No. 446, SEPTEMBER TERM, 2005,
COURT OF SPECIAL APPEALS OF MARYLAND, April 28, 2006, Filed
View this case - free
|
Overview: An insured's appeal was erroneously dismissed as untimely since he was required to file his petition for judicial review within 30 days following service of the order resulting from the administrative hearing, as required by Md. Code Ann., Ins. § 2-215(d)(1), which meant the date the notice was received, not the date it was mailed.

Chang v. Brethren Mut. Ins. Co., No. 657, September Term, 2005,
COURT OF SPECIAL APPEALS OF MARYLAND, May 1, 2006, Filed
View this case - free
|
Overview: A clause ambiguously said an insurer would consider an insured's mitigation expenses, and fact questions existed as to costs being reasonable mitigation expenses the insurer agreed to pay. If the insurer had to pay costs, it could be liable to defend a claim against the insured, but not to defend or indemnify as to an excluded third party claim.

Smithfield Packing Co. v. Evely, No. 806, September Term, 2005,
COURT OF SPECIAL APPEALS OF MARYLAND, May 1, 2006, Filed
View this case - free
|
Overview: Evidence was insufficient to sustain the employee's claim for malicious prosecution because the evidence, when viewed in the light most favorable to the employee, showed that the employer had probable cause to believe that the employee was involved in a theft, and, thus, trial court's judgment for the employee had to be reversed.

View this case - free
|
Overview: Under case precedent, Maryland's Grandparent Visitation Statute, Md. Code Ann., Fam. Law § 9-102, was held valid and constitutional as it honored the presumption that the parents' decision was in the best interest of the children and did not require a showing of exceptional circumstances, such as harm, to prevent an award of grandparent visitation.

View this case - free
|
Overview: In child custody action where mother alleged father sexually abused child, trial court applied incorrect burden of proof, using preponderance of evidence standard when reasonable grounds standard was proper.
