The Second Circuit’s Court of Appeals’ rulings Wednesday on two cases brought by a Syracuse, N.Y., collision repairer will have a significant impact on New York repairers but touch the rest of the nation as well, an auto body repair-focused attorney predicted Monday.

Progressive and Nick’s Garage v. Nationwide, “the appellate court said several things that are precedential and not limited to this case.”
