For the reasons discussed in the consolidated case of George Raymond Williams, M.D., Orthopaedic Surgery, A Professional Medical L.L.C., et al. v.

We, therefore, deny the writ application of Chartis Specialty Insurance, Co., Darwin Select Insurance Company, Landmark American Insurance Company, Illinois Union Insurance Company, and Westchester Surplus Lines Insurance Company.
WRIT DENIED.
