Insurance — UM coverage — ambiguity

Insurance — UM coverage — ambiguity
Sharon Brevik appeals a judgment declaring that Auto-Owners Insurance Company is not bound by a default judgment obtained in an Idaho action against an uninsured motorist. We conclude the insurance policy is unambiguous and requires Auto-Owners’ written consent to be bound by the judgment. Because Auto-Owners did not consent to be so bound, we affirm. This opinion will not be published.
