OTTAWA COUNTY • CJ-2026-00017

Ohio Security Insurance Company v. Russel Group LLC DBA CBI Print

Filed: Feb 17, 2026
Type: CJ

What's This Case About?

Let’s cut to the chase: an insurance giant is suing a small Ohio print shop for $49,170.60 — not because of a fiery warehouse explosion or a rogue delivery truck plowing into a school bus, but because the printer allegedly didn’t pay its bill. That’s it. No drama. No scandal. Just a spreadsheet error, a missed invoice, and now, a full-blown lawsuit filed in Ottawa County, Oklahoma, with all the legal fanfare you’d expect from a corporate debt collection.

So who are these people? On one side, we’ve got Ohio Security Insurance Company and The Ohio Casualty Insurance Company — yes, both are named plaintiffs, though they sound like they were pulled from the same insurance-themed bingo card. These are big-league players, subsidiaries of Liberty Mutual, the kind of corporate entities that don’t blink at six-figure claims. They’re represented by Berman & Rabin, P.A., a law firm that clearly has better things to do than chase down printer invoices, but hey — someone’s gotta keep the lights on at the office.

On the other side: Russel Group LLC, doing business as CBI Print, a modest printing company based in Ottawa County, Oklahoma. Their name appears on a Liberty Mutual insurance policy, which means they’re not some fly-by-night operation — they’ve got liability coverage, a mailing address in Miami, Oklahoma, and an agent listed with The Cole Organization. They’re the kind of small business that prints flyers for local car dealerships, maybe does some banners for high school football games. Not exactly the type you’d expect to be sued by a multi-billion-dollar insurer… unless, of course, they stiffed them on a $49,000 tab.

Now, what happened? Well, according to the filing, it’s as dry as a tax audit. Somewhere along the line, Ohio Security and Ohio Casualty entered into a written contract with CBI Print. What that contract was for? The documents don’t say. Was it for insurance? Unlikely — insurers don’t typically “contract” with their own policyholders for services. Was CBI Print hired to print something for the insurance company? That seems plausible — maybe they were hired to produce policy documents, marketing materials, or even claim forms. Or maybe this is a case of mistaken identity, a clerical mix-up where two similarly named companies got tangled in a billing snafu. But the filing doesn’t speculate. It just says: We had a contract. We performed. They didn’t pay.

And just like that, we’re in court. The plaintiffs claim CBI Print owes $49,170.60 as of June 2, 2025. That’s not chump change — it’s enough to buy a brand-new pickup truck, cover a year of rent for a small office, or fund a very nice printing press. The insurer says it sent a demand letter — standard procedure — but the balance remains unpaid. So now, they’re asking the court for judgment, plus interest, plus court costs, and a little bonus: they want the Oklahoma Employment Security Commission to hand over CBI Print’s employee records if they win. Why? So they can track down assets, of course. This isn’t just a lawsuit — it’s a corporate repo man in a suit.

The legal claim here is as straightforward as it gets: breach of contract. That means one party failed to do what they promised in a legally binding agreement. No fraud. No negligence. No wild accusations of sabotage or embezzlement. Just: “You signed. You didn’t pay. Now we want our money.” It’s the civil court equivalent of “you broke it, you bought it” — but with more paperwork.

And what do they want? $49,170.60. Put that in perspective: for a printing company, that’s a serious hit. For an insurance behemoth? It’s a rounding error. Liberty Mutual reported over $40 billion in revenue last year. This amount wouldn’t even cover their CEO’s bonus for a single afternoon. But still — they’re suing. Not settling. Not negotiating. Not sending a sternly worded email. They’re filing affidavits, notarized statements, and demands for judgment. This is corporate muscle flexing at its most mundane.

Our take? The most absurd part isn’t the amount, or the players, or even the fact that a multi-national insurer is suing a local print shop. It’s the tone. This isn’t a dispute. It’s a debt collection operation dressed up as a civil lawsuit. The affidavit is signed by Cassandra Cesario, a “Sr. Receivables Analyst” — a title that sounds like it was generated by an AI trained on corporate jargon. She swears under penalty of perjury that the books show the debt is valid, that all credits have been applied, and that yes, the printer definitely didn’t pay. It’s all so… clinical. So bloodless. No anger. No drama. Just numbers on a screen and a notary stamp from New Hampshire (which, by the way, has nothing to do with Oklahoma — but sure, why not?).

And let’s be real: we’re rooting for the little guy here. Not because CBI Print is innocent — we don’t know that. But because there’s something deeply unromantic about a giant insurance company using the full weight of the legal system to collect a bill that probably started as a misfiled invoice. Where’s the human touch? The phone call? The “Hey, we noticed you missed a payment — everything okay?” No. It’s straight to litigation. Because in 2025, apparently, even $49,000 is worth a courtroom showdown.

So here we are. A print shop. An insurance company. A contract. A debt. And a judge in Ottawa County, Oklahoma, who’s about to decide whether a printer owes nearly fifty grand. It’s not Serial. It’s not Making a Murderer. But in its own quiet, spreadsheet-driven way, it’s peak petty civil court. And we’re here for it.

It should be noted that there may also be broadenings of coverage in your renewal policy. Please review the individual forms for the changes that may have resulted in a broadening of coverage. Only the countrywide versions of endorsements are referenced. State specific versions, where applicable, have been amended in the same manner as the countrywide version unless otherwise specified.

The summary that follows is for information purposes only and does not provide coverage. Your policy forms, along with the Policy Declarations, provide complete details of your coverage. If the below summary conflicts with the applicable policy language, the policy language prevails. SUMMARY OF CHANGES TO YOUR BASE UMBRELLA POLICY The following is a summary of the changes we believe are most significant. The changes are listed in the order the coverages or provisions appear in your renewal policy. <table> <tr> <th>Previous Form Number</th> <th>Previous Form</th> <th>New Form Number</th> <th>New Form</th> </tr> <tr> <td></td> <td>Commercial Umbrella Coverage Form</td> <td></td> <td>Commercial Umbrella Coverage Form</td> </tr> </table> SECTION I - COVERAGES Reduction or Potential Reductions in Coverage • If your previous policy did not contain CU 88 30 07 14 General Amendatory, CU 88 31 05 09 Personal and Advertising Injury - Following Form or a state equivalent endorsement, Section I - Coverages has been updated to include a section that outlines the application of bodily injury, property damage and personal and advertising injury that may result in a reduction of coverage. • If your previous policy contained CU 88 30 07 14 General Amendatory, CU 88 31 05 09 Personal and Advertising Injury - Following Form or a state equivalent endorsement, the amendments to Section I. Coverage in these endorsements have now been added to your renewal policy coverage form CU 60 02 Commercial Umbrella Coverage Form. • A coverage territory definition now applies to bodily injury, property damage and personal and advertising injury: ● If your previous policy included CU 63 44 Foreign Liability - Following Form or a state equivalent endorsement, this endorsement has now been repurposed into this definition and that endorsement will no longer apply. ● If your previous policy did not include CU 63 44 Foreign Liability - Following Form, your renew policy no longer applies to occurrences happening anywhere and instead will apply to the coverage territory which is defined to include the US, including its territories and possessions, Puerto Rico and Canada and will also apply anywhere in the world, but only if that coverage is provided by underlying insurance. Coverage will not apply to anywhere that is subject to trade or other economic sanctions or embargo by the US. ● Personal and advertising injury must now take place in the coverage territory. This may result in a reduction in coverage. SECTION II - WHO IS AN INSURED Editorial Change ● This is a new section that has been added to your renewal policy. Your previous policy defined the term "insured". That definition has been removed and replaced with this new section. ● Your renewal policy now outlines how coverage applies to those who qualify as additional insureds when required by contract or agreement. This provision was previously located in Section III - Limits Of Insurance. ● Employees, leased workers and temporary workers are now defined in Section VII - Definitions. Reduction or Potential Reductions in Coverage ● Your previous policy included anyone as an insured who was included on underlying insurance. Your renewal policy has been updated to outline specific insureds and only additional insureds when they are included on the underlying insurance. For example, insured status is listed for trusts, entities other than a partnership, joint venture or limited liability company and volunteer workers, employees (other than your executive officers) and managers. This may result in a reduction of coverage if there are insureds included on your underlying policy that are not listed on this policy. ● Your renewal policy now outlines how coverage will apply to those who qualify as additional insureds when required by contract or agreement. If your previous policy contained the CU 88 39, this section has been moved from Section III - Limits of Liability to Section II - Who is an Insured. If your previous policy did not contain CU 88 39 07 14 Amendment of Definition of Insured, this may be a reduction in coverage as coverage provided to such person or organization will be the lesser of the amount agreed upon in the contract or agreement or the applicable limits of insurance for this policy. If the applicable limits of insurance agreed upon are wholly in the underlying insurance then this policy will not apply. Broadening of Coverage ● The requirement of being the sole owner as of the effective date of this policy has been removed. ● Who is an insured for liability arising out of the maintenance, ownership or use of an auto has been expanded to include any person or organization as an insured with regards to that liability as long as they qualify on underlying insurance. SECTION III - LIMITS OF INSURANCE Editorial Change ● Limits Of Insurance has moved from Section II. Limits Of Insurance to Section III - Limits Of Insurance. Reduction or Potential Reductions in Coverage ● Your previous policy did not apply the general aggregate to any underlying insurance to which no aggregate applied. Your renewal policy applies the general aggregate to all coverage except damages caused by an occurrence and resulting from the ownership, maintenance or use of a covered auto. This change may result in a reduction of coverage. • Your renewal policy no longer applies the general aggregate limit separately and in the same manner as the aggregate limits in the underlying insurance. However, if your policy contains endorsement CU 90 63, your aggregate will apply in this manner. • The each occurrence limit is most we will pay for all damages. Your previous policy outlined that the each occurrence limit was the most we will pay for bodily injury, property damage, or personal and advertising injury. This could be a potential reduction in coverage. • Non-cumulation of liability is now included in your renewal base policy contract. If your previous policy did not include CU 88 02 Non-Cumulation of Liability (Same Occurrence), there may be a reduction in coverage. If your policy did include CU 88 02, non-cumulation of liability now applies to one offense caused by personal and advertising injury, which may also result in a reduction of coverage. • The retained limit will not be reduced or exhausted by defense costs, loss adjustment expenses, supplementary payments or similar amounts that reduce or exhaust the policy limits of underlying insurance or other insurance. Your previous policy did not outline this restriction. • If applicable underlying insurance is not written concurrently with the policy period of your Umbrella policy, the retained limit of your Umbrella policy will only be reduced or exhausted by payments for bodily injury or property damage occurring during the Umbrella policy period or personal and advertising injury committed during the Umbrella policy period. If your policy did not have the CU 60 44 Unimpaired Aggregate Endorsement previously, there may be a reduction in coverage. Clarification of Coverage • Non-cumulation of liability no longer applies to insurance specifically written as excess of this policy. SECTION IV - DEFENSE Editorial Changes • Defense has moved from Section III. Defense to Section IV - Defense. Reduction or Potential Reductions In Coverage • We will pay for all costs taxed against the insured, however, your renewal policy clarifies that those costs do not include attorneys' fees and attorneys' expenses taxed against the insured. • Your renewal policy outlines that this policy will pay for actual loss of earnings up to $500 a day because of time off work. Your previous policy did not outline this specifically, including the dollar amount, which may result in a reduction of coverage. Clarifications of Coverage • Your renewal policy clarifies that we will use the counsel of our choice when we have the right and duty to defend you. • Your renewal policy includes additional clarification that we reserve the rights to settle the suit or claim within our limits. • We will reimburse you for our share of reasonable costs incurred when we are prevented by law or statute from performing the duty to defend and you agree to take up defense and investigation. Your previous policy did not explicitly outline this provision. SECTION V - EXCLUSIONS Editorial Changes • Exclusions has moved from Section IV. Exclusions to Section V - Exclusions. • Each exclusion now contains their own title and have been rearranged into alphabetical order. • The Nuclear Material, Hazard or Incident exclusion located at the bottom of your previous policy contract has been moved into the Exclusion section. The definitions in this previous provision have been added to Section VII - Definitions. • The definition of pollutants has been moved to Section VII - Definitions. • CU 63 44 Foreign Liability - Following Form no longer applies and instead a definition for coverage territory has been added. Reduction or Potential Reductions in Coverage • Aircraft If your previous policy did not include CU 89 21 Amendment of Aircraft Exclusion or a state equivalent endorsement, this exclusion has been amended to apply to any liability arising out of any aircraft owned, operated or rented or loaned to an insured. Your previous policy applied this exclusion to any aircraft hired without pilot or crew, by or on behalf of any insured. Your renewal policy's aircraft exclusion also applies even if the claim against the insured allege negligence or other wrongdoing. This may result in a reduction of coverage. If your previous policy did include CU 89 21 Amendment of Aircraft Exclusion or a state equivalent endorsement, the exclusion in your renewal policy has been updated to apply to any liability which may be a reduction in coverage. • Asbestos The exclusion in your previous policy has been updated to apply to any liability, loss, costs or expense allegedly arising out of asbestos. Paragraph b. now applies regardless if such activities are requested, ordered or mandated by any regulatory or governmental entity. Paragraph c. now applies regardless if such claim or suit is brought by or on behalf of any regulatory or governmental authority. • Auto Coverages If your previous policy did not include CU 61 06 Auto Liability - Following Form, CU 61 07 Auto Liability Exclusion or a state equivalent endorsement, your policy now includes an exclusion for liability arising out of the ownership, maintenance, use or entrustment of any auto. However, this exclusion does not apply to the extent underlying insurance provides such coverage. • Contractual Liability If your previous policy did not include CU 61 13 Contractual Liability - Following Form, CU 61 50 Contractors Limitation Endorsement or a state equivalent endorsement, your policy now includes an exclusion for any liability assumed by any insured under any contract or agreement. This may be a reduction in coverage if the exception of this exclusion does not apply. • Employment-Related Practices If your previous policy included CU 88 03 Employment-Related Practices Exclusion or a state equivalent state-specific employment-related practices exclusion, your renewal policy exclusion has been amended to remove coverage for any consequential liability, damage, loss, cost or expense arising out of employment-related practices, policies, acts or omissions. The CU 88 03 Employment-Related Practices Exclusion applied this exclusion specifically to spouse, child, parent, brother or sister and this change may result in a reduction of coverage. If your previous policy did not include the CU 88 03 Employment-Related Practices Exclusion, the following changes apply: This insurance no longer applies to employment-related practices, policies, acts or omissions which may result in a reduction in coverage. This insurance does not apply to any consequential liability, damage, loss, cost or expense resulting from the refusal to employ or promote a person; termination of a person's employment or employment-related practices, policies, acts or omissions. This exclusion applies whether the injury causing event occurs before employment, during employment or after employment of that person. These changes may result in a reduction in coverage. • Damage to Property • If your previous policy did not include CU 90 51 Damage to Property Amendment (Care, Custody and Control Personal Property), CU 90 52 Damage to Property Amendment or a state equivalent endorsement the following is now excluded for property damage by your renewal policy: • Property damage to property you own, rent or occupy clarifies that this exclusion includes any costs or expenses incurred by you, or any other person, organization or entity for repair, replacement, enhancement, restoration or maintenance of such property for any reason, including prevention of injury to a person or damage to another's property. • Premises you sell, give away, or abandon, if the property damage arises out of any part of those premises. This exclusion does not apply if the premises are your work and were never occupied, rented or held for rental by you. • That particular part of real property on which you or any contractors or subcontractors working directly or indirectly on your behalf are performing operations, if the property damage arises out of those operations. This exclusion does not apply to liability assumed under a sidetrack agreement. • That particular part of any property that must be restored, repaired, or replaced because your work was incorrectly performed on it. This exclusion does not apply to liability assumed under a sidetrack agreement or to property damage included in the products-completed operations hazard. • Fungi or Bacteria • If your previous policy did not include CU 63 80 Fungi or Bacteria Exclusion or a state equivalent endorsement, your renewal policy now includes an exclusion for fungi or bacteria which may result in a reduction of coverage. • Liquor Liability • If your previous policy did not include CU 61 25 Liquor Liability Exclusion, CU 61 26 Liquor Liability - Following Form or a state equivalent endorsement, your policy now includes an exclusion for liquor liability, however this exclusion only applies to the extent that underlying insurance does not include such exclusion. This exclusion also applies only if you are in the business of manufacturing, distributing, selling, serving or furnishing alcoholic beverages. This may result in a reduction of coverage. • Mobile Equipment • If your previous policy did not include CU 64 92 Mobile Equipment - Following Form or a state equivalent endorsement: • Your policy now includes an exclusion for mobile equipment. However, this exclusion does not apply to the extent that underlying insurance provides such coverage. • Your policy's definition has been updated to clarify that mobile equipment does not include land vehicles that are subject to a compulsory or financial responsibility law or other motor vehicle insurance law where such vehicles are licensed or principally garaged. This may result in a reduction of coverage. • If your previous policy included CU 64 92 Mobile Equipment - Following Form or a state equivalent endorsement, a definition of mobile equipment has been added to your policy specifying the types of mobile equipment defined by this term. This may result in a reduction of coverage. • Personal and Advertising Injury • If your previous policy did not include CU 88 30 07 14 General Amendatory, CU 88 31 05 09 Personal and Advertising Injury - Following Form or a state equivalent endorsement, Exclusions J. and K. have been combined, apply to the newly defined term personal and advertising injury and the following changes apply: ● Your renewal policy exclusion no longer references televised, videotaped or electronic publication of material. ● The exclusion for personal and advertising injury arising out of willful violation of a penal statute or ordinance has been updated to be a criminal act committed by or at the direction of the insured. ● The exclusions for advertising injury arising out of a breach of contract, failure of goods, products or services, and wrongful description of the price of goods, products or service applies to personal and advertising injury and not just advertising injury as it had on your previous policy. ● An exclusion has been added for personal and advertising injury caused by or at the direction of the insured with the knowledge that the act would violate the rights of another and would inflict personal and advertising injury. ● An exclusion has been added for personal and advertising injury arising out of the infringement of copyright, patent, trademark, trade secret or other intellectual property rights. ● The exclusion included in Exclusion K. advertising injury committed by an insured whose business is advertising, broadcasting, publishing or telecasting now applies to personal and advertising injury. ● An exclusion has been added for personal and advertising injury committed by an insured whose business is designing or determining content of websites for others or an internet search, access, content or service provider. ● An exclusion has been added for personal and advertising injury arising out of an electronic chatroom or bulletin board the insured hosts, owns, or over which they exercise control. ● An exclusion has been added for personal and advertising injury arising out of the unauthorized use of another's name or product in your e-mail address, domain name or metatag or other similar tactics to mislead another's potential customers. ● If your previous policy included CU 88 31 05 09 Personal and Advertising Injury - Following From or a state equivalent and this endorsement no longer applies, your renewal policy's personal and advertising injury exclusion is no longer follow form with the underlying and instead includes specific exclusions that apply to this definition within your renewal policy and should align with standard underlying language.

Reduction or Potential Reductions in Coverage • The Coverage section of the endorsements has been updated to reflect and align with changes to the base coverage form. These changes include the addition of the following provisions, which were not included in your previous endorsement(s): • A provision has been added to indicate that amounts we may pay for a negligent act, error or omission in the administration of the insured's employee benefit program. • A provision has been added to indicate that the applicable negligent act, error or omission must take place in the coverage territory, did not take place before the Retroactive Date and after the end of the policy period, and the applicable claim was first made against the insured in accordance with the Paragraph 3. and the Extended Reporting Period of this endorsement for coverage to apply. • A provision has been added to clarify when the applicable act, error or omission will be deemed to have been known for the purposes of determining coverage. • The Limits Of Insurance section in the endorsement(s) has been revised to add the following conditions which were not included in your previous endorsement: • The each occurrence limit is the most we will pay for the sum of all damages because of the applicable negligent act, error or omission. • A provision was added to outline how this coverage will apply in the situation where the underlying insurance is non- concurrent with the policy period of this policy and the retained limit with respect to this coverage will only be reduced or exhausted by payments for the applicable negligent act, error or omission that occur or claims that are made during the policy period or Extended Reporting Period of this policy. • The Conditions section has been amended to adjust the following policy language which were not included on your previous endorsements: • Maintenance of underlying conditions have been outlined that stipulate that if the underlying insurance is cancelled or no longer in effect, this endorsement will also be cancelled or no longer in effect, effective the same date and time as the cancellation of the underlying insurance. • The new endorsement now applies on a claims-made basis, including an Extended Reporting Period outlined in your endorsement.

The terms collapse hazard, explosion hazard, structural property damage, underground property damage hazard and underground property damage are no longer defined within this form. Reduction or Potential Reductions in Coverage • The exclusion for failure to supply gas, oil, water, electricity, steam or biofuel applies regardless of whether such failure or inability is the result of the inadequacy of the insured to procure, produce, process or transmit sufficient gas, oil, water, electricity, steam or biofuel to meet the demand. Your previous endorsement applies this exclusion only if such failure resulted in that inadequacy. This may result in a reduction of coverage. • Personal and advertising is excluded except to the extent that underlying insurance provides such coverage. Coverage under this policy will be no broader than that provided by underlying insurance. Your previous policy only excluded liability imposed by law or assumed by any insured under an insured contract because of personal and advertising injury. This may result in a reduction of coverage. • The property damage exclusionary language has been updated to align with your renewal policy exclusion. This exclusion continues to only apply to the extent that coverage is excluded on an underlying policy when this endorsement is applied. This may result in a reduction of coverage. <table> <tr> <th>Previous Endorsement Number</th> <th>Previous Endorsement</th> <th>New Endorsement Number</th> <th>New Endorsement</th> </tr> <tr> <td>CU 62 01 01 17</td> <td>Missouri Changes - Pollution Definition</td> <td>CU 91 53 04 21</td> <td>Missouri Changes - Pollution Definition</td> </tr> </table> • Additional language has been added to the endorsement to clarify that the pollution exclusion applies whether or not any irritant or contaminant is your product or products used by you, and/or is an integral part of or incidental to your business or operations.
