ST. PAUL FIRE & MARINE INSURANCE 

COMPANY,

Plaintiff,

v.

EVEREST NATIONAL INSURANCE 

COMPANY, et al.,

Defendants.

Case No. 13-cv-02047-HSG 

ORDER DISMISSING DEFENDANT 

NATIONAL FIRE & MARINE 

INSURANCE COMPANY UNDER 

FRCPRULE 41(A)(2)

Re: Dkt. No. 151

On March 24, 2015, Plaintiff St. Paul Fire & Marine Insurance Company (“St. Paul”) and 

Defendant National Fire & Marine Insurance Company (“National Fire & Marine”) notified the 

Court that they had reached a settlement in the above-captioned action and requested permission 

for St. Paul to dismiss National Fire & Marine without prejudice pursuant to FRCP 41(a)(1). See

Dkt. No. 151.

However, because National Fire & Marine has answered the complaint, see Dkt. No. 20, 

and not all parties appearing in this action have stipulated to National Fire & Marine’s dismissal, 

see Dkt. No. 151, the parties’ request is more appropriately considered under FRCP 41(a)(2). 

Good cause appearing, National Fire & Marine is hereby dismissed without prejudice from the 

above-captioned action pursuant to FRCP 41(a)(2). Each party will bear its own costs.

IT IS SO ORDERED.

Dated: March 25, 2015
