Can insurance be mentioned in the trial of a personal injury case?
The existence of insurance coverage on any defendant generally cannot be mentioned by any of the parties in the trial although defendants are typically insured. Injured persons must sue the person or persons who caused their injuries and do not have the right in Colorado to sue the at-fault parties’ insurance companies, although insurance companies normally pay for the defense of the lawsuit and pay the amount of the verdicts or judgments up to the limits of coverage.
