The Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals affirmed summary judgment granted by district court in favor of insureds under commercial property policy following a fire loss claim, finding insurer’s disclaimer of coverage based on the insured’s failure to satisfy the policy’s Protective Safeguards endorsement was improper where evidence reflected that working fire alarms were in place that satisfied the terms of the pertinent endorsement.
