Ninth Circuit blows open $162 million legacy policy fight over aggregate limits

The U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit ruled on April 23, 2026, that annual aggregate limits in legacy umbrella policies do not apply to property damage claims, potentially exposing insurers to $162 million in a California environmental cleanup case involving breach of contract and bad faith allegations. The decision reverses a lower court and remands for further proceedings on declaratory relief.
