California Court of Appeal
Baker v. Nat'l Interstate Ins. Co., B204860
In an insurance coverage dispute arising from a wrongful death lawsuit involving a school bus accident where the driver was ejected from the bus when the seat belt broke loose, judgment of the trial court in favor of the insured is reversed and remanded as the policy in this case excluded coverage to the insured for damages arising from its inspection services, which were work-related, "completed operation," regardless of whether those inspection services were related to the bus.
