Peters v. Allstate Insurance Co.

LMAX N. TOBIAS, JR., Judge.

We grant the application for supervisory writ of co-defendant, Arnica Mutual Insurance Company (“Arnica”), to conduct a de novo review of a judgment of the First City Court of New Orleans that held Arni-ca, as the insurer of the defendant/driver of the automobile involved in an accident, was primary and Allstate Insurance Company (“Allstate”), the insurer of the defendant/owner of the vehicle involved in the accident, was excess. The trial court granted Allstate’s motion for summary judgment and denied Arnica’s cross-motion for summary judgment.
