Description
1 In this case, we are called upon to review the trial courts grant of summary judgment to CGU Insurance Company (CGU, the insurer) and its concomitant dismissal of the suit brought by the Brickman Group Limited (Brickman, the insured). The action turns on Brickmans contention that CGU, by way of an oral and/or written agreement made outside the scope of the various insurance policies issued Brickman by CGU, promised to freeze rates for six years, and that when CGU attempted to raise premiums or "non-renew" policies subject to that agreement during this six-year period it breached that agreement. The trial court granted summary judgment in CGUs favor primarily on the basis that such an agreement, where not memorialized in the policy documentation itself, is impermissible under Pennsylvania law and thus unenforceable. We affirm.
