Zurich Specialties London v. Century Surety
Plaintiff Zurich Specialties London, Ltd., (Zurich) brought this equitable contribution action to compel defendant Century Surety Company (Century) to pay its share of the defense and indemnity costs Zurich incurred on behalf of their mutual insured, Star Sheet Metal (Star). Century appeals from a judgment in Zurich's favor, arguing the trial court erred because the defense and indemnity costs incurred on Star's behalf did not exceed the deductible established by Century's policy and therefore Century had no obligation to contribute to either Star's defense or indemnification.
