Silly movie plot? Perhaps \u2026 but having seen this film several times, I can attest that Rupert\u2019s antics set humorous events in motion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Not to be outdone by Rupert, a squirrel\u2019s plight is central to the coverage dispute in a recent Iowa Supreme Court decision.<sup>1<\/sup>&nbsp;In 2014, a squirrel climbed onto an outdoor electrical transformer at the insured city\u2019s power plant. While still touching a grounded steel frame that supported an electrical cable, the squirrel came into contact with a bare cable clamp that was \u201clive\u201d with 7200 volts. The contact created a conductive path between the high voltage clamp and the grounded frame, which triggered an electrical arc. The arcing killed the squirrel and caused $213,524.76 worth of damage to the transformer and other electrical equipment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The City of West Liberty sought coverage under an all risks insurance policy. The insurer denied coverage based on an exclusion in the policy, which excluded coverage for \u201closs caused by arcing or by electrical currents other than lightning.\u201d The city then sued the insurer in an Iowa state court for a declaratory judgment of coverage and damages. The parties filed cross motions for summary judgment. The city argued the damage claim was covered because the squirrel \u2013 not the arcing \u2013 was the efficient proximate cause of the loss.<sup>2<\/sup>&nbsp;According to the city, it was irrelevant whether the policy excluded arcing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The district court disagreed and granted summary judgment to the insurer, finding the sole cause of the damage was the electrical arc, noting the squirrel did no damage to the insured\u2019s property such as gnawing on a power line or digging for nuts in a dangerous area. The court stated:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\"><p>The Court cannot conclude that the \u201csquirrel\u2019s actions\u201d were a cause of the damages because the squirrel did not actually do anything to cause damages; it merely touched some things it should not have touched. The arc caused all of the damages. Had the squirrel done what it had done, and the arc not occurred, there would be no damages. Because there are not two different damage-causing events, the Court need not engage in an efficient proximate cause analysis. If an efficient proximate cause analysis was appropriate, the Court would find that the arcing was the dominant cause.<sup>3<\/sup><\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>On appeal, the Iowa Supreme Court affirmed the court below, finding the loss was caused by arcing even though the squirrel triggered the arcing. In its analysis, the court observed this is not a case of two independent causes, one of which is covered and one excluded:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\"><p>The squirrel did not independently contribute to the loss \u2026 Rather, the squirrel was inextricably tied to the arcing and was the immediate reason why the arcing happened.<sup>4<\/sup><\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>If you would like more information about property damage claims stemming from overlapping independent events, there are several excellent archived posts by my colleagues discussing efficient proximate cause issues or call us with any questions you might have.<br>__________________________________<br><sup>1<\/sup>&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.propertyinsurancecoveragelaw.com\/files\/2019\/04\/City-of-West-Liberty.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><em>City of West Liberty v.
