Certain Underwriters at Lloyds London v. Magnolia Management Corp.

IN THE UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE FIFTH CIRCUIT United States Court of Appeals Fifth Circuit FILED July 25, 2008 No. 07-60388 Charles R. Fulbruge III Clerk CERTAIN UNDERWRITERS AT LLOYDS LONDON, subscribing to policy UP01US361029, Plaintiff - Appellee, v. MAGNOLIA MANAGEMENT CORPORATION; BRANDON LIVING CENTER, LLC, doing business as Brandon Court; RANKING COMMUNITY CARE CENTER, LLC, doing business as Brandon Court; BRANDON COURT, LLC; SANDRA CHAMPION BALL; MELISSA JOHNSTON; TRACY ROBINSON GARCIE; COLLEEN CAMP, Defendants - Appellants. Appeal from the United States District Court for the Southern District of Mississippi, Jackson 3:04-CV-540 Before HIGGINBOTHAM, DAVIS, and BARKSDALE, Circuit Judges. PER CURIAM:* We have carefully reviewed the record, considered the briefs of the parties and argument of counsel. Essentially for the reasons stated by the district court in its careful Memorandum Opinions and Orders of June 2, 2005 and August 23, * Pursuant to 5TH CIR. R. 47.5, the court has determined that this opinion should not be published and is not precedent except under the limited circumstances set forth in 5TH CIR. R. 47.5.4. No. 07-60388 2006, we agree with the district court’s conclusion that appellants’ policy provided no coverage to appellants. We, therefore, affirm the district court’s declaratory judgment. Because we are unable to determine from the record whether appellee has discharged any duty it may have to pay appellants’ cost of defense incurred prior to the district court’s no coverage ruling, we remand this case to the district court to resolve this issue and render judgment accordingly. AFFIRMED. REMANDED. 2
