INSURANCE LAW DEPARTMENT
Spain - A new vision of the action of reimbursement between insurers. Judgment of the Civil Chamber of the Supreme Court 647/2023, of May 3rd.
In the case analysed by the Supreme Court, two insurers were involved in the same accident, with different policyholders. The injured party only brought his action against one of the insurers, which was convicted. In this judgement, the Supreme Court analyses the position of the insurer convicted in a previous criminal proceeding as directly liable and its possible action against the insurer to which the injured party did not direct the action but which also insured the same risk/injury with its policy.
