Duplicate Contents Coverage

I am handling a case on behalf of an insurance company. Coverage C of their homeowners policy is at issue in this bad faith case whereby the insured seeks 100 percent reimbursement for loss of personal property in the Oakland fire storm of October, 1991.

The policy states that the company's limit of liability for personal property usually situated at an insured's residence, other than the residence premises, is 10 percent of the limit of liability for coverage C. Personal property in a newly acquired principal residence is not subject to this limitation for the 30 days immediately after you begin to move the property there.
