SAN JOSE DIVISION

Santana Row Hotel Partners, L.P.,

Plaintiff,

 v.

Zurich America Insurance Company, et. al.,

Defendants.

 /

NO. C 05-00198 JW 

ORDER GRANTING PLAINTIFF'S

MOTION FOR LEAVE TO FILE FIRST

AMENDED COMPLAINT 

This is an action for breach of an insurance contract. Plaintiff Santana Row Hotel Partners, L.P.'s

("Plaintiff") moves for leave to amend its complaint under Fed. R. Civ. P. 15(a) to add a new party and two

additional causes of action against Defendant Zurich America Insurance Company ("Zurich"). (See

Plaintiff's Motion for Leave to File Amended Complaint, Docket Item No. 43, Ex. A.). Specifically,

Plaintiff seeks to amend the complaint to include Arthur J. Gallagher and Company ("AJG") in its claims of

breach of third party beneficiary contract and fraud. Plaintiff also seeks to amend the complaint to include

claims of promissory estoppel and breach of third party beneficiary contract solely against Zurich.

Plaintiff noticed the motion for hearing on November 28, 2005. Thereafter, Zurich and Defendant

Gallagher-Pipino, Inc. ("Gallagher") each filed a statement of non-opposition to Plaintiff's motion. 

Accordingly, the November 28 hearing date is vacated, and the motion for leave to amend is GRANTED

as unopposed. Plaintiff shall file and serve the First Amended Complaint no later than November 30,
