PER CURIAM:

Allstate Fire and Casualty Insurance Company appeals the 

district court’s order granting Joseph and Amanda Simpson’s 

motion for attorney’s fees. We have reviewed the record and 

find no reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm for the 

reasons stated by the district court. Allstate Fire & Cas. Ins. 

Co. v. Simpson, No. 8:15-cv-01908-HMH (D.S.C. Mar. 7, 2016); see

Hegler v. Gulf Ins. Co., 243 S.E.2d 443 (S.C. 1978). We 

dispense with oral argument because the facts and legal 

contentions are adequately presented in the materials before 

this court and argument would not aid the decisional process.

AFFIRMED
