Plaintiff Endurance American Specialty Insurance Company (“Endurance”) and Defendant/Counterclaimant Laer Enterprises, Inc. (“Laer”) have stipulated to and requested a stay of the remaining insurance coverage claims of the moving parties until the conclusion of the Underlying Lawsuit.¹

1 Schumacher et al. v. LGI Homes - Washington, LLC et al, King County Superior Court Cause number 21-2-10435-1-SEA and a related arbitration proceeding currently pending before the American Arbitration Association.

The Court has reviewed the submission of the parties and finds that good cause exists to enter this order. It is hereby ORDERED that this matter is stayed pending the conclusion of the Underlying Lawsuit. This stay shall not restrict Endurance from seeking entry of a judgment against the defaulted parties.

Endurance and Laer shall advise the Court of the status of the Underlying Lawsuit every 60 days until those proceedings are concluded.
