Valls v. Allstate Insurance Co.

(United States Second Circuit) – Held that homeowners were not insured for their home’s allegedly defective concrete foundation. The gradual deterioration of their stillā€standing basement walls did not constitute a covered "collapse" under their homeowner’s insurance policy. Affirmed a dismissal.
