United States Seventh Circuit
Medmarc Cas. Ins. Co. v. Avent Am. Inc., 09-3390
In a duty to defend case arising from an underlying class action suit filed against a company for using Bisphenol-A (BPA) in their products without informing consumers of risks associated with the potential leaching of BPA, district court's grant of insurance companies' motion for declaratory relief is affirmed as the underlying suits are not covered by the policies because the claims are limited to economic damages due to the purchase of unusable products, and these damages are not "because of bodily injury" and the complaints do not allege any bodily injury occurred.
