A Florida appeals court judge has ruled that an insurer is not liable for damages that occurred to an apartment after a neighbor's dead body 'exploded.'

Sounds like something Cannibal Corpse would write a song about.

“...left the neighbor’s corpse so long that the body’s fluid leaked into her apartment.”

I don’t know.

Does a rupturing body sound like a bursting pipe?

State Farm offered to pay for the cleanup, but she wanted “explosion coverage”.

Is damage from exploding bodies covered under a comprehensive plan?

Seems to me the condo association should bear some responsibility.

Odd argument, as if the association knew there was a corpse and just left it there.
