Description
Plaintiffs and cross-defendants St. Paul Fire & Marine Insurance Company, Inc., and St. Paul Mercury Insurance Company, Inc. (St. Paul), brought this declaratory judgment action against their insured McCormick & Baxter (M & B). St. Paul sought a declaration that there is no coverage under St Paul's liability insurance contracts for costs incurred by M & B in investigating and correcting environmental contamination resulting from its operations in Oregon and California. St. Paul included as defendants the insurance companies that had issued liability insurance contracts to M & B, seeking a declaration that, if coverage does exist under St. Paul's contracts, it also exists under the insurance contracts issued by those companies. M & B then filed a cross-complaint against all of the insurance companies*fn1 seeking damages for breach of contract and a declaration that the companies have a duty to defend M & B in environmental administrative proceedings and to indemnify it for its environmental cleanup costs.*fn2
