Hammock v. Cincinnati Insurance 102 Ohio St. 3d 1232

{¶ 1} The motion for this court to reconsider its judgment entry in Hammock v. Cincinnati Ins. Co., 101 Ohio St.3d 1467, 2004-Ohio-819, 804 N.E.2d 41, is denied.

Moyer, C.J., Resnick, F.E. Sweeney, Pfeifer, Lundberg Stratton, O’Connor and O’Donnell, JJ., concur.

Lundberg Stratton and O’Donnell, JJ., concur separately.

Lundberg Stratton, J.,

concurring.

{¶ 2} I concur with the decision to deny reconsideration. However, as I stated in my concurring opinion in Fish v. Ohio Cas. Ins. Co., 101 Ohio St.3d 1210, 2004-Ohio-224, 802 N.E.2d 149, I believe that Westfield Ins. Co. v. Galatis, 100 Ohio St.3d 216, 2003-Ohio-5849, 797 N.E.2d 1256, applies to all pending cases where a claim has been raised under Scott-Pontzer v. Liberty Mut. Fire Ins. Co. (1999), 85 Ohio St.3d 660, 710 N.E.2d 1116. Here, the appellate court has remanded the *1233case to the trial court for further proceedings. The proceedings on remand should include application of Galatis.

Kohnen & Patton, L.L.P., and Colleen M. Blandford, for appellant.

O’Donnell, J., concurs in the foregoing concurring opinion.
