In Snyder v. California Insurance Guarantee Association, the California Court of Appeal, First Appellate District, considered when the three-year statute of limitations for a cause of action against the California Insurance Guarantee Association (CIGA) accrues.  The statute does not begin to run until a “covered claim” matures and is denied.  CIGA’s denial in an answer to a complaint for declaratory relief did not satisfy this requirement.
