,Q1. After a wildfire destroys a manufacturing facility, the insured submits a claim for
property damage and business interruption. The policy includes a 'civil authority'
provision. If the government closes the area for 10 days, but the facility itself is
undamaged, is the business interruption loss covered if the insured's own property is
not directly damaged?
A. Yes, if the civil authority order is based on direct physical loss to neighboring
property and the insured's access is prohibited.
B. No, because business interruption coverage requires direct physical damage to the
insured's property.
C. Yes, but only if the civil authority order specifically names the insured's property.
D. No, because civil authority coverage only applies when the insured's own property
sustains physical damage.
Correct Answer: A. Yes, if the civil authority order is based on direct physical loss to
neighboring property and the insured's access is prohibited.
Rationale: Business interruption coverage often includes civil authority extension, which
covers loss due to prohibited access when a civil authority order is issued because of
physical damage to neighboring property. The insured's own property need not be
damaged, but the order must be based on physical loss. Option B incorrectly requires
direct damage; C is wrong because the order need not name the insured; D misstates the
trigger.
Why Wrong:
B - This contradicts the civil authority extension, which does not require direct
damage to the insured's property.
C - The civil authority order does not need to name the insured's property specifically;
only the area closure must be due to physical loss.
D - Civil authority coverage is designed precisely for situations where the insured's
property is undamaged but access is denied due to damage to others.

Q2. An employer in Georgia fails to secure workers' compensation insurance as
required by law. An employee sustains a compensable injury. Which of the following
remedies is available to the employee?
A. The employee may sue the employer for damages in civil court, and the employer
loses the common law defenses.
B. The employee must file a claim with the Georgia Workers' Compensation Board and
is limited to statutory benefits.
C. The employee may choose between workers' compensation benefits and a tort
action, but not both.
D. The employee is entitled to double the regular weekly compensation as a penalty for
the employer's non-compliance.
Page 3
, Correct Answer: A. The employee may sue the employer for damages in civil court,
and the employer loses the common law defenses.
Rationale: Georgia law provides that an employer who fails to secure workers'
compensation insurance forfeits the common law defenses (assumption of risk,
contributory negligence, fellow servant rule) and may be sued in tort. The employee is not
limited to statutory benefits. Option B is incorrect because the exclusive remedy rule does
not apply when the employer is uninsured. Option C is false; the employee can choose
either remedy, but cannot recover double benefits. Option D is not a statutory penalty in
Georgia.
Why Wrong:
B - The exclusive remedy rule is nullified when the employer fails to secure coverage;
the employee can sue in tort.
C - The employee may pursue either workers' compensation or a tort action, but not
both; they must elect.
D - Georgia law does not authorize double compensation for such failure; the remedy
is civil suit without defenses.
Reference: O.C.G.A. §34-9-120
Q3. Under Georgia's uninsured motorist (UM) coverage, an insured is struck by a
hit-and-run driver. The police report confirms a phantom vehicle. The insured's
policy requires 'physical contact' with the hit-and-run vehicle. Which of the following
must the insured prove to satisfy the physical contact requirement?
A. That the phantom vehicle's identity cannot be ascertained after diligent search.
B. That the phantom vehicle made direct contact with the insured's vehicle or a closely
related object.
C. That the accident was caused solely by the phantom vehicle's negligence.
D. That the insured sustained bodily injury or property damage in the accident.
Correct Answer: B. That the phantom vehicle made direct contact with the insured's
vehicle or a closely related object.
Rationale: Georgia law and standard UM policies require that the hit-and-run vehicle
cause physical contact with the insured or an object it strikes. Direct contact is not always
needed if the phantom vehicle causes another object to strike the insured's vehicle. Option
A is relevant for identifying the driver but not for physical contact. Option C is about fault,
not contact. Option D is a general requirement but not specific to contact.
Why Wrong:
A - While necessary for a UM claim, this does not satisfy the physical contact
requirement.
C - Fault is a separate element; physical contact is a distinct condition for hit-and-run
coverage.
D - Injury or damage is required but does not address the contact requirement.
