RENAISSANCE RECOVERY SOLUTIONS LLC v. MONROE GUARANTY INSURANCE COMPANY FCCI (2019)

United States Court of Appeals, Eleventh Circuit.

RENAISSANCE RECOVERY SOLUTIONS, LLC, United States Fire Insurance Company, Interstate Fire and Casualty Company, Plaintiffs-Appellants, v. MONROE GUARANTY INSURANCE COMPANY, FCCI Insurance Company, Defendants-Appellees.

No. 18-11511

Decided: May 08, 2019

Before WILSON, JILL PRYOR, and TALLMAN,* Circuit Judges.

Stephanie Collings Patel, Dennis Corry Smith & Dixon, LLP, Atlanta, GA, for Plaintiffs-Appellants Stephanie Feingold Glickauf, Tyler Bryant Walker, Goodman McGuffey, LLP, Atlanta, GA, Robert M. Darroch, Goodman McGuffey Lindsey & Johnson, LLP, Sarasota, FL, for Defendants-Appellees

Renaissance Recovery Solutions, LLC, United States Fire Insurance Company, and Interstate Fire and Casualty Company (collectively, Appellants) brought an action seeking contribution from Monroe Guaranty Insurance Company and FCCI Insurance Company after paying a $2.5 million damages judgment entered jointly and severally against their insureds. Applying Georgia law, the district court found that this was a contribution action and apportioned accordingly. Appellants appealed, arguing that they were entitled to recover a greater amount along with penalty interest under Michigan law. After careful review and with the benefit of oral argument, we affirm the district court’s well-reasoned opinions.
