HB 1019 Homeowners insurance; policy nonrenewals for claims from other than natural causes.
Introduced by: James H. Dillard, II | all patrons ... notes | add to my profiles
SUMMARY AS INTRODUCED:
Homeowners insurance; grounds for nonrenewals. Prohibits an insurer or agent from refusing to renew a homeowner's insurance policy solely because of a claim resulting primarily from other than natural causes, unless the claim is related to a substantial increase in the risk of loss that the insurer assumed under the policy. Currently, an insurer may not refuse to renew a policy due to claims resulting primarily from natural causes, but may do so for claims resulting primarily from any other cause.
