Seems there are alot of posters so knowledgable they don't need to read the policy to make a decision. Deny, hang on to the money until a court rules, play musical adjuster, pick up engineers and independent adjusters that would sell there soul for a pat on the back and a few bucks seems to be the rule of the day.
I don't know if the decision in this case is just or not and neither do any of you but my guess is the hurricane states would be far better off without most the insurers they have to chose from.
New Orleans property damage in my opinion is due to mechanical breakdown and human error. Katrina was a mere cat 2 to 3 in New Orleans as it was to the left side, remember? The bad guy in this case was the Army Corp for building sub-standard levees, cementing the Miss. River upstream causing less sedimentation which destroyed large sections of wetland protection, further complicated by building levees on bogs and marshes.
I think insurers should be forced to pay the claims and be able to subrugate to the Federal Government. Then, they should fill the shithole up with dirt or give it back to the sea.
