法官已经清除了PCL从四年前发生的与不列颠哥伦比亚省维多利亚州的桥梁建设项目中的损坏有关的加拿大保险公司收集长时间的建筑商风险索赔的道路。

The insurer battled for years to deny PCL coverage for water damage on the Johnson Street Bridge, a replacement structure that opened for use in March 2018. The $78-million structure is Canada’s largest single-leaf bascule bridge.

A provincial judge ordered Royal & Sun to settle up with PCL Westcoast Ltd., the prime contractor, for the remaining $250,000 balance of a $520,000-plus claim for water damage, which Royal & Sun had fought since 2015.

保险战源于2015年2月在混凝土倒入时的恶劣天气，当水渗入模板“损坏了桥梁的混凝土基础”时，法庭记录说明。

Roughly six months later, PCL notified Royal & Sun through its insurance broker about the issue, requesting coverage. However, the first line of defense by Royal & Sun, which provided builder’s risk insurance to the city, was to deny the claim. The insurer argued that PCL was not named as an insured party.

经过两年的未成功尝试从皇家和太阳付款的尝试之后，PCL在不列颠哥伦比亚省最高法院起诉。一名法官在2017年裁定PCL受到支持，尽管皇家和太阳的又花了一年的时间，2018年9月，在其欠款超过520,000美元中，咳嗽了270,000美元。

皇家和太阳拒绝交出剩余的25万美元，认为提供给PCL的政策包括该金额的免赔额。

但是凯瑟琳·默里（Catherine Murray）夫人凯瑟琳·默里（Catherine Murray）在5月28日对PCL的决定中承认承包商很可能已经知道可扣除的能力，但认为这与此案无关。该政策违反了该省的保险法规，该法规需要预先披露任何否定或限制要支付或欠款金额的条款。
