Shannon Hyland v. Liberty Mutual Fire Insurance Company
Paid petition · United States Court of Appeals for the Seventh Circuit, No. 17-2712 · judgment March 15, 2018
Before the decision, well below the 4.1% base rate, with no standout signals pointing toward a grant.
Question presented
Whether the Court of Appeals so far departed from the accepted and usual course of judicial proceedings when it deliberately removed relevant and uncontested facts from a breach of contract case, denied that a party made an extensive argument based upon those facts, and then vacated a $4.6 million judgment against the insurance company on grounds that relies upon the absence of those facts.
