Rhode Island Joint Reinsurance Association v. Brenda Ricci

Summary

The Supreme Court of Rhode Island affirmed the Superior Court judgment and the trial justice’s denial of the defendants’ motions for a new trial, holding that the trial justice did not abuse discretion in her evidentiary rulings, refusal to order appraisal, jury instruction decisions, and that the defendants waived objections to the jury instructions. The Court also affirmed that the implied‑covenant claim was waived.
