A court of the Northern District of Texas denied an insurer’s motion for summary judgment and motion to strike an insured’s expert in a commercial property insurance dispute arising from alleged hail and wind damage, holding that fact issues existed as to whether covered storms caused the claimed roof damage because the insured presented competent expert evidence of causation and damage that could support a finding of sole causation or permit segregation, and that the expert’s opinions were admissible as sufficiently reliable and relevant despite challenges to methodology and allocation.
