Match each insurance claim or underwriting scenario to the specific legal principle or doctrine it best demonstrates.
- A liability insurer issues a written addendum intentionally stating they will not enforce a standard pollution exclusion for a specific, ongoing project.Express Waiver
- A life insurer consistently accepts and cashes premium checks received weeks after the grace period without demanding a reinstatement application.Implied Waiver
- An adjuster mistakenly instructs a claimant to dispose of damaged property before inspection, legally barring the insurer from later denying the claim based on failure to exhibit the property.Estoppel
- A commercial property insured strictly guarantees in the contract that a central alarm system will always be active, but intentionally disables it, giving the insurer the right to deny a subsequent theft claim.Breach of Warranty
Cevap
The written addendum matches Express Waiver; the routine acceptance of late premiums matches Implied Waiver; the detrimental reliance on the adjuster's instruction matches Estoppel; and the violation of the alarm guarantee matches Breach of Warranty.
Each scenario isolates a distinct legal contract doctrine: deliberate written surrender (Express Waiver), surrender by conduct (Implied Waiver), legal bar due to detrimental reliance (Estoppel), and violation of an absolute contractual guarantee (Breach of Warranty).
