Opinion
On December 10, 1992, we issued an opinion in this case in which we certified to the Georgia Supreme Court the issue of the application of O.C.G.A. § 33-7-11 to insurance policies covering vehicles not principally garaged or used in Georgia. 979 F.2d 187. The Supreme Court of Georgia has responded to our request in its opinion of Arnica Mutual Ins. Co. v. Bourgault, 263 Ga. 157, 429 S.E.2d 908 (1993). That court answered our question in the negative, holding that O.C.G.A. § 33-7-11 does not invalidate an exclusion in an insurance policy covering a vehicle principally garaged and used outside of Georgia.
The Supreme Court of Georgia’s decision is consistent with the reasoning of the district court. Accordingly, the judgment of the district court is AFFIRMED.
