L & a United Grocers, Inc. v. Safeguard Ins., 460 A.2d 587 (Me. 1983). “Neither party to this appeal has addressed the possibility that if 24-A M.R.S.A. § 3003 is applicable to the policy, that section might render applicable, in turn, the two-year limitation of section 3002 even though the loss is not fire-related.”
