Co., 28 A.D.3d 32, 807 N.Y.S.2d 62 (2006), the First Department held that the insurer’s assumption of the defense without knowledge of the true facts was insufficient to stop the insurer from successfully disclaiming coverage upon learning the true facts. Since the insurer reserved its rights before disclaiming coverage, the insured’s argument that estoppel prevented the disclaimer failed. Estoppel (a rule that requires fairness and protects one party from being harmed by another party’s voluntary conduct) cannot be used to create coverage where none exists. Any reservation provided by the insurer is sufficient to prevent reliance upon the defense provided by the insurer should the insurer decide to disclaim later.
