2899 REVIEW DENIED If any theory advanced by an action against an insured might be covered by a liability policy, the insurer has a duty to defend the entire action until the possibility no longer exists, and this might include an obligation to participate in an appeal; but the carrier does not breach its duty to defend by reserving the right to seek reimbursement for costs incurred to defend portions of the action which it had no obligation to defend.CitationPRICHARD v LIBERTY MUT (Reservation of Rights) 84 CA4 890 [See: Buss v Superior Court 16 C4 35, T/AT 8/97; INA v National 37 CA4 195, T/AT 9/95; Montrose v Superior Court 6 C4 287, T/AT 1/94; Hartford v Superior Court 23 CA4 1774, T/AT 5/94; Ringler v Maryland 80 CA4 1165, T/AT 6/00]
