Statewide Insurance Fund v. Star Insurance Company

 Statewide Insurance Fund v. Star Insurance Company  A JIF established under the Joint Insurance Fund Act affords liability protection to public entities through “self-insurance,” not insurance. Here, Star’s “other insurance” clause is not triggered because “self-insurance” protection through JIF membership is not “other insurance.” Star’s coverage is therefore primary.
