How later courts describe this case

  • explaining that “[t]his court has consistently held that the scope of these two provisions is the same”
  • the active-passive indemnity rule relieves a passively negligent tortfeasor "from any liability for the damage that occurred. That result seems strongly at odds with the preferences for comparative fault expressed in Reliable Transfer "
