Walsh had obtained a large judgment against Craig following a motor vehicle accident, and State Farm, Craig's insurer, paid its policy limit. Walsh and Craig sought additional post-judgment interest, arguing the policy required State Farm to pay interest on the full underlying judgment until satisfied. The appellate court affirmed, holding that State Farm's obligation to pay post-judgment interest terminated when it paid its liability coverage limit, and the policy language was unambiguous.","primaryTopic":"insurance","topicSlugs":["insurance","contracts","civil-procedure","summary-judgment","auto-accident"],"outcomeNorm":"affirmed","officialSourceUrl":"https://www.courts.mo.gov/file.jsp?id=191735","detailUrl":"https://ott.law/missouri-courts/opinions/michael-walsh-v-state-farm-mutual-automobile-insurance-company-and-sheryl-d85260","relatedPracticeAreas":[{"slug":"personal-injury","label":"Personal Injury","href":"/practice-areas/personal-injury","score":20,"source":"tag","evidence":["tag: personal-injury"],"url":"https://ott.law/practice-areas/personal-injury"},{"slug":"insurance-bad-faith","label":"Insurance Bad Faith","href":"/practice-areas/insurance-bad-faith","score":16,"source":"topic","evidence":["topic: insurance","text: insurer","text: coverage"],"url":"https://ott.law/practice-areas/insurance-bad-faith"},{"slug":"car-accidents","label":"Car Accidents","href":"/practice-areas/car-accidents","score":12,"source":"topic","evidence":["topic: auto-accident"],"url":"https://ott.law/practice-areas/car-accidents"}],"role":"appellant"}]}
