Weyerhaeuser Co. v. Commercial Union Insurance Co.12/21/2000
as essentially identical, we should give the language the identical interpretation effect. Holter v. Nat'l Union Fire Ins. Co., 1 Wn. App. 46, 50, 459 P.2d 61 (1969).
As the parties here essentially agree, the language of the Fireman's Fund liability policy afforded Weyerhaeuser coverage up to an annual aggregate limit of $500,000, I would affirm the trial court's ruling to that effect.
In conclusion, Commercial Union afforded liability insurance coverage for property damage to Weyerhaeuser from 1970 to 1973. The agreement provided an aggregate annual limit of liability insurance coverage to Weyerhaeuser in the amount of $1,500,000 for the property damage coverage. This annual aggregate limit of insurance coverage is consistent with the language of the Commercial Union policy and its declaration page.
Moreover, the limit is consistent with the context of Weyerhaeuser's placement of excess liability insurance coverage, given Commercial Union's place in the layers of coverage afforded to Weyerhaeuser. I would remand the case to the trial court for further proceedings consistent with this determination as to the existence of an annual aggregate limit of property damage liability insurance coverage under both the Commercial Union and Fireman's Fund insurance policies.
