Docket entry

061302 Estes Express Lines v. Chopper Express, Inc. 03/02/2007 An indemnity provision in a vehicle lease agreement is not void as against public policy insofar as it would entitle a party to indemnification for liability incurred as the result of personal injuries caused by its own negligence. Thus, the trial court erred in ruling that such an indemnity provision is unenforceable, and in sustaining a demurrer for that reason. The judgment is reversed and the case is remanded for further proceedings.
