WI Court of Appeals – District I
Case Name: Acuity v. Estate of Michael Shimeta, et al.,
Case No.: 2020AP189
Officials: Donald, P.J., Dugan and White, JJ.
Focus: Insurance Claim – Coverage
The Estate of Michael Shimeta and Terry Scherr appeal an order denying their motion for judgment on the pleadings and granting Acuity, a Mutual Insurance Co.’s motion for declaratory judgment. The Estate and Scherr argue that they are each entitled to an additional $250,000 payment pursuant to the Underinsured Motorists Coverage (UIM Coverage) in the policy that Shimeta had with Acuity. We agree and, thus, we reverse the order of the circuit court and remand for further proceedings consistent with this court’s decision.
