Chubb Co. has said it will appeal a Texas court ruling requiring it to defend cell phone maker Samsung against several class-action injury suits by consumers, an attorney for the manufacturer said yesterday.
Finley Harckham, with Anderson Kill & Olick law firm, said by e-mail that Chubb has until Dec. 14 to file a notice of petition with the Texas Supreme Court and “They told us that is what they intend to do when they called to discuss scheduling of the submissions for that petition.”
A Chubb spokesperson said the company would not comment outside of court filings in the case.
