CONTINENTAL CASUALTY AND SCOR AGREE TO DISMISS REINSURANCE CASE WITH PREJUDICE

December 15, 2009 by Carlton Fields

On October 14, the US District Court for the Northern District of Illinois entered an Agreed Order of Dismissal of a reinsurance dispute as to whether the commutation and release agreement between Continental Casualty and SCOR also covered reinsurance contracts purchased from non party insurers Unity Fire and General Ins. Co. and Allstate Ins. Co. Following an April 2009 Order denying SCOR’s motion for a stay pending arbitration, this matter came before the Court by agreement of the parties and the action was dismissed with prejudice. Continental Cas. Co. v. Commercial Risk Re-Insurance Co., Case No. 07-6912 (N.D. Ill. Oct. 14, 2009).
