State Farm Lloyds and Erin Strachan, Petitioners v. Wanda M. Page, Respondent

Summary

The Texas Supreme Court held that the Standard Homeowner’s Policy‑Form B does not cover mold damage to the dwelling caused by plumbing leaks, but does cover mold damage to personal property caused by such leaks. It also held that State Farm’s summary‑judgment arguments were not preserved, so the appellate court could not reverse the trial court on those points, and remanded for further proceedings on extra‑contractual claims related to personal‑property coverage.
