1Opinion of the Court

PER CURIAM: *

This case involves the scope of two different insurers’ obligations to defend and indemnify Hinds County School District (“HCSD”) -with respect to the Coward family’s claims. The two insurers are called Ace American and Acadia. Both insurers filed motions for summary judgment arguing that their respective insurance policies did not cover the Coward family’s claims. The district court granted both motions. The district court also denied HCSD’s motion for leave to amend its pleading to include a counterclaim against Acadia for a breach of the duty of good faith and fair dealing.
