DA 20-0279

DANA ROLAN, on her own behalf and on behalf of the class she represents, J Plaintiffs, Counter-Defendants, and Appellees, MAR 0 8 2022 Bowerl Ureenwood Clerk of Supreme Court Rtato exf NAnntana v. NEW WEST HEALTH SERVICES, ORDER Defendant and Appellee, DARWIN SELECT INSURANCE COMPANY and ALLIED WORLD ASSURANCE COMPANY and DARWIN NATIONAL ASSURANCE COMPANY, Defendant, Counter-Claimant, and Appellant.

On January 4, 2022, we issued an Opinion in the above-entitled action, reversing the District Court's holding that Allied is estopped from asserting the $1 million "each Claim" limit of liability, remanding for the District Court to consider whether the $1 million limit applied, and affirming the District Court's holding that Allied's "Loss" provision does not preclude Allied's indemnity obligation of the class's damages. On January 18, 2022, Rolan filed a Petition for Rehearing.

M. R. App. P. 20(1)(a) provides that a petition for rehearing will be considered only when the Court "overlooked some fact material to the decision," when "it overlooked some question presented by counsel that would have proven decisive to the case," or when "its decision conflicts with a statute or controlling decision not addressed" by the Court.

Having fully considered Rolan's petition, we conclude a rehearing is not warranted under the standards of M. R. App. P. 20(1)(a). Accordingly, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that the petition for rehearing is DENIED.

The Clerk of Coultis,_ directed to mail copies of this Order to all counsel of record.

DATED this day of March, 2022.
