Summary
In this oral argument before the Delaware Supreme Court, the attorney representing plaintiff Dianna Purnell-Charleston sought reversal of the Superior Court's decision that concluded State Farm had satisfied its statutory obligation of extending a meaningful offer of uninsured/underinsured motorist coverage equal to Ms. Purnell-Charleston's bodily injury liability limits. Ms. Purnell-Charleston filed a suit after State Farm denied her request for reformation of her automobile insurance policy, increasing her UM/UIM limits to match that of her liability coverage, $25,000/$50,000.
Outcome
The Superior Court's judgment was affirmed.
