TASK DEFINITION: In this task, you will be shown a prompt from a judicial decision and multiple holding statements derived from citations following text in a legal decision.  Holdings represent the governing legal rule when the law is applied to a particular set of facts. There are five answer choices for each citing text. The correct answer is the holding statement that corresponds to the citing text. The four incorrect answers are other holding statements. You should find the correct option. There is a <HOLDING> token in the position of the citing text prompt where the holding statement was extracted.
PROBLEM: an insurer to await the filing of a complaint against its insured will force insurers to defend claims that are unlikely to result in a duty to indemnify. We recognize the reality of Patrons’s concerns. We conclude, however, that the rationale supporting the comparison test outweighs those concerns. See Dingwell, 414 A.2d at 227. “We have always recognized that the application of the comparison test will occasionally requ dgment action before the injured claimant filed an action against the insured. Dolley, 669 A.2d at 1321. Rather than rejecting the action on ripeness grounds, we determined the insurer’s duly to defend vel non on the basis of what the corn-plaint might have alleged, in view of the parties' stipulation. Id. at 1323. 5 . See State Mut. Ins. Co. v. Bragg, 589 A.2d at 38 (<HOLDING>); Perreault v. Maine Bonding & Cas. Co., 568 
 Holding statements: (A) holding insurers duty to defend is determined by allegations in the petition (B) holding that insurance company could sue in insureds name following assignment of insureds interest against tortfeasor (C) holding that an insurers duty to defend arises from the allegations in the complaint against the insured (D) holding insurers right to subrogation arises only upon the insurers showing that the sum of the insureds recovery from the insurer and from persons legally responsible for the injury exceeds the insureds loss (E) holding that insureds criminal convictions were sufficient to preclude relitigation of the issue of the insureds subjective intent for purposes of evaluating the insurers duty to defend

PROBLEM: to the poisonous tree”) (quoting Olivares-Rangel, 458 F.3d at 1117). To be able to object to the police conducting an illicit protective sweep of the Gonzalez residence, Defendant would have to have some basis to claim that the sweep violated his rights. He does not. We conclude, therefore, that his subsequent detention was lawful. 2. Defendant’s detention occurred after the police had conducted the sweep of Gonzalez’s residence, and only an individual with a legitimate expectation of privacy in the residence could object to the sweep. After entering the garage, officers acted reasonably in detaining Defendant when they caught him red handed with large quantities of marijuana, cuttings tools, and scales in plain sight. See United States v. Turner, 553 F.3d 1337, 1344 (10th Cir.2009) (<HOLDING>). We reject any contention that the officers

PROBLEM: omitted). The BIA did not abuse its discretion in denying Lin’s motion to reopen proceedings based on his failure to abide by the time limitations for such motions. Lin filed his motion in April 2006, more than one year after the BIA’s issuance of its final decision in March 2005, and long after the ninety-day deadline for the filing of motions to reopen had passed. 8 U.S.C. § 1229a(c)(7)(C); 8 C.F.R. § 1003.2(c)(2). Although Lin argues in his brief to this Court that the arrest warrant he submitted to the BIA constituted evidence of changed country conditions, this Court lacks jurisdiction to consider this issue in light of the Government’s argument that he failed to administratively exhaust it before the BIA. Cf. Lin Zhong v. U.S. Dep’t of Justice, 461 F.3d 101 (2d Cir.2006) (<HOLDING>). It is possible that the warrant provided new 
 Holding statements: (A) holding that issue exhaustion is not jurisdictional and thus waived if not raised by the government (B) recognizing that issue exhaustion is a mandatory although not jurisdictional requirement (C) holding that under 8 usc  1252d1 issue exhaustion while mandatory is not a jurisdictional requirement and consequently a failure to exhaust may be waived by the government (D) holding that exhaustion is mandatory and jurisdictional (E) holding that issue exhaustion is mandatory even if not a statutory jurisdictional requirement
