Today’s Honolulu Advertiser reports that Mauna Kea Beach Hotel on the Big Island has sued one of its excess carriers for failure to provide coverage for earthquake damage suffered in October 2006.  The story reports that three of the Hotel’s carriers have paid policy limits amounting to $30 million.  Affiliated FM Insurance Co., however, has refused coverage, arguing that $14.49 million in damages and business losses should be covered by the other policies and not by Affiliated’s policy.  The case was filed in State Court in November but was recently removed to Federal District Court.
