The Court of Appeal in Various Eateries Trading Ltd v Allianz Insurance plc [2024] EWCA Civ 10, [2024] Lloyd's Rep IR Plus 13, has dismissed appeals against the first instance judgment of Butcher J, [2024] Lloyd's Rep IR 60, a vital decision on the operation of aggregation in business interruption Covid-19 claims.
Most of the points decided at first instance were not subject to appeal. The only reasoned judgment was that of Males LJ,
with Sir Julian Flaux (Chancellor) and Newey LJ agreeing on all points.
