The Pennsylvania Manufacturer’s Association, the company that has provided Penn State general liability insurance since 1976, filed a motion Wednesday claiming coverage should be denied following the Jerry Sandusky case.
Penn State Insurer Files Motion To Deny Coverage
The company says coverage should be denied because the school’s administration failed to disclose what they knew about Sandusky’s behavior, according to a report from CNN.com.
“It would be unlawful and contradictory to public policy to require PMA to provide coverage to PSU under any policy issued to PSU after May 1998 with respect to PSU’s concealment of Sandusky’s sexually abusive conduct ... and failure to take appropriate action to prevent Sandusky from molesting minors,” the motion read.
The company previously sued Penn State in November of 2011 over the claims of one of Sandusky’s victims.
