Washington Supreme Court Rules Unanimously for Policyholder
in Fluke v. Hartford
The case involved an important issue of first impression in
Washington: whether public policy prohibits insurance coverage for
punitive damages. The case also involved the appropriate application
of choice-of-law principles in a breach of contract case.
Gordon Murray Tilden filed a brief and participated in oral arguments
in favor of the prevailing policyholder, Fluke Corporation, on behalf
of amicus curiae Weyerhaeuser, Costco and Puget Sound Energy.
