LONDON (Reuters) -Insurers have won key parts of a complex legal battle with British pubs group Stonegate, MS Amlin said after Monday's judgment on the 1 billion pound ($1.13 billion) lawsuit against three top insurers over losses related to coronavirus. Insurers have already paid out more than 1.5 billion pounds in compensation to thousands of small businesses that had to close or restrict trading to curb the coronavirus, after Britain's markets watchdog won a test case against the insurers. But not all policy wordings were covered by the test case and, where they were, some businesses disputed payout levels, leading to further court cases.
