A Massachusetts-based commercial real estate and loan servicing company's bid for $39.6 million in Hurricane Maria coverage will stay exclusively in Puerto Rico, after a federal judge dismissed an identical action in the Bay State on Wednesday.
A dispute over $39.6 million in insurance claims over damage from Hurricane Maria in Puerto Rico must stay in Massachusetts federal court because that's where the contract breach took place, a commercial real estate and loan servicer said.
The owner of an insurance policy in Puerto Rico sued Mapfre Praico Insurance Co. in Boston federal court Tuesday, alleging the insurer has paid just $2.6 million out of $39.6 million it owes for damage to over 200 properties from Hurricane Maria in 2017.
