UNAUTHORIZED INSURER’S OBJECTION TO RULING ON PRE-PLEADING SECURITY OVERRULED

May 25, 2010 by Carlton Fields

On April 19, 2010, we reported on a magistrate judge ordering that the defendant, an unauthorized insurer, post pre-pleading security in the amount of $660,389. The defendant subsequently filed an objection to this ruling, arguing that the plaintiff could not recover more than the current amount contained in the segregated accounts at issue. Affirming the ruling of the magistrate judge, the district court observed that the pre-pleading security statute contemplated the posting of an amount sufficient to secure the judgment sought by the plaintiff and concluded that the ruling was not erroneous or contrary to law. Arrowood Surplus Lines Ins. Co. v. Gettysburg Nat’l Indem. Co., Case No. 09-972 (USDC D. Conn. May 7, 2010).
