Fire insurance: indemnity.
Summary
Existing law defines the measure of indemnity for a loss under an open fire insurance policy and specifies time limits under which an insured must collect the full replacement cost of the loss. In the event of a total loss of an insured structure, existing law prohibits a fire insurance policy issued or delivered in this state from containing a provision that limits or denies payment of the building code upgrade cost or the replacement cost on the basis that the insured has decided to rebuild at a new location or to purchase a built home at a new location. This bill would make technical, nonsubstantive changes to those provisions.
