Opinion

HASTINGS, J.

Petitioners, Fairmont Insurance Company (Fairmont) and Transamerica Insurance Company (Transamerica) (collectively referred to as petitioners), seek to have us reverse an order granting summary adjudication of a cause of action for declaratory relief relating to their duty to defend. In connection with their request, we issued an alternative writ. After considering the matter, including real parties’ opposition to the petition, we now grant a writ of mandate commanding the trial court to vacate its order granting summary adjudication.
