Krinick, a partner with Uniondale's Rivkin Radler, writes: The past term's insurance law decisions can be divided into two general categories: one group of cases resolving notice and disclaimer disputes, and another involving a wide range of issues under different insurance policies. Interestingly, each present member of the Court authored at least one of the decisions, with Judge Robert S. Smith authoring three. There was a dissent in only one of the Court's major insurance rulings, but all of the cases will likely have a great deal of practical importance for both insurance carriers and policyholders.
