In this week's episode, Abby Ferguson, Marketing Manager, discusses Smith Freed Eberhard's latest Legal Alert, "Oregon Federal Court Joins Growing List of Courts to Decide Whether Lost Business Income From COVID-19 Closures Are Covered Under Insurance Policies". This case arose from a business’s claim for lost business income under a Business owner’s Protection Policy for direct physical loss or damage to covered property resulting from the closure of the business during COVID-19.

The court found that there was no direct loss or damage to property so there was no coverage under the policy.
