The United States District Court for the Southern District of Florida, applying Florida law, has held that a professional liability insurer did not have a duty to defend or indemnify its insured in a lawsuit involving the improper transfer of escrow funds, based on the policy’s exclusion for claims arising out of the misappropriation of funds.
