Federal District: 
E.D. Wisc.
Holding: 
Reversed and vacated in part and remanded
Dist. Ct. erred in entering judgment in favor of plaintiff-insured in action seeking reformation of insurance policy so as to require defendant-insurance company to pay for environmental cleanup costs on property owned by plaintiff. Record showed that there was no meeting of minds regarding actual property that plaintiff wished to insure, which served to defeat instant reformation action. Moreover, plaintiff knew at all relevant times that policy did not include coverage for subject property.
