Description
Insurer Pennsylvania National Mutual Casualty Insurance Co. ("Pennsylvania National") appeals a grant of summary judgment in favor of its insured -- Kitty Hawk Airways, Inc. ("Kitty Hawk") -- and Kitty Hawks former employee, Jeffrey Thomason Pollard. The district court granted Kitty Hawks motion for summary judgment on the grounds that Pennsylvania National is estopped from raising a defense of non-coverage by its assumption and continuation of Kitty Hawks defense for more than one year before raising a reservation of its rights. Finding that the doctrines of estoppel and waiver do not apply, we reverse the portion of the district courts judgment holding that Pennsylvania National is estopped from denying coverage and render judgment in favor of Pennsylvania National on its non-coverage claim.
