United States Ninth Circuit
Progressive Gulf Ins. Co. v. Faehnrich, 09-16487
In an action by an insurer seeking a declaration that the family member exclusion in an auto insurance policy barred recovery for defendants arising out of a car accident, the Ninth Circuit certified the following question to the Supreme Court of Nevada: Does Nevada's public policy preclude giving effect to a choice-of-law provision in an insurance contract that was negotiated, executed, and delivered while the parties resided outside of Nevada, when that effect would deny any recovery under Nevada Revised Statutes section 485.3091 to Nevada residents who were injured in Nevada?
