Schimmel v. Fire Ins. Exchange
Selma Schimmel appeals from the judgment entered after the trial court granted summary judgment in favor of her insurer, Fire Insurance Exchange (the Exchange), a member of the Farmers Insurance Group, on her claims for breach of written contract (insurance policy) and breach of the implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing. The court determined both claims were barred by the one year limitations period contained in her insurance policy. Schimmel contends triable issues of material fact exist as to whether the limitations period was tolled and whether the Exchange was equitably estopped from asserting the limitations defense. Court affirm.
