Mason sought an additional $50,000 in liability coverage from a Progressive automobile policy issued to Terry and Matthew Ozborn, claiming the policy provided operator's liability coverage for Terry's vehicle not involved in the accident. The appellate court affirmed, holding that the policy's unambiguous anti-stacking language limited liability to a single payment, and the policy satisfied the Motor Vehicle Financial Responsibility Law.","primaryTopic":"insurance","topicSlugs":["insurance","summary-judgment","contracts","civil-procedure","appellate-procedure"],"outcomeNorm":"affirmed","officialSourceUrl":"https://www.courts.mo.gov/file.jsp?id=144213","detailUrl":"https://ott.law/missouri-courts/opinions/progressive-preferred-insurance-company-plaintiff-respondent-v-jeffrey-ma-d35929","relatedPracticeAreas":[{"slug":"insurance-bad-faith","label":"Insurance Bad Faith","href":"/practice-areas/insurance-bad-faith","score":16,"source":"topic","evidence":["topic: insurance","text: coverage"],"url":"https://ott.law/practice-areas/insurance-bad-faith"},{"slug":"corporate","label":"Corporate Law","href":"/practice-areas/corporate","score":12,"source":"topic","evidence":["topic: contracts"],"url":"https://ott.law/practice-areas/corporate"},{"slug":"litigation","label":"Civil Litigation","href":"/practice-areas/litigation","score":12,"source":"topic","evidence":["topic: civil-procedure","topic: summary-judgment","topic: appellate-procedure"],"url":"https://ott.law/practice-areas/litigation"}],"role":"respondent"}]}
