Audio opinion coming soon

Brief Fact Summary

Theresa Craven was injured in a hit and run accident. She was insured by Royal-Glob, who sought declaratory judgment that it was not liable because Craven's notice to Royal-Globe was not timely. The trial judge entered summary judgment for Craven. Royal-Globe appealed.
