Supreme Court of Rhode Island

Atmed Treatment Center, Inc. v. the Travelers Indemnity Company

December 9, 2022

Summary

The Supreme Court held that the trial justice correctly treated Travelers’ motion for reconsideration as not governed by Rule 60(b) because the original order was interlocutory, affirmed the judgment on counts 1 and 2, vacated the summary‑judgment ruling on count 3 and remanded for further proceedings, and concluded that the policy’s discrimination exclusion barred a duty to defend and that the trial justice erred in granting summary judgment on the bad‑faith claim.
