A court of the Western District of Texas denied an insurer’s motion for reconsideration and its alternative motion for certification of interlocutory appeal, finding that the insurer had presented no new basis to overturn the court’s prior ruling that, pending class certification, the full payment of replacement cost to a representative plaintiff following appraisal does not resolve the underlying dispute of contract interpretation regarding whether the policy permits the depreciation of labor.
