Certas Home and Auto Insurance Company appealed an arbitration decision regarding loss transfer indemnification from Intact Insurance Company for statutory accident benefits paid to an insured.
The arbitrator found Certas had grossly mishandled the claim by failing to follow its own adjusting plan and continuing benefits despite medical opinions and the insured's completion of vocational training.
The Superior Court of Justice upheld the arbitrator's decision, finding no palpable and overriding error in the arbitrator's conclusion that Certas grossly mismanaged the claim, thereby limiting Intact's indemnification obligation.
