United States Seventh Circuit
Envision Healthcare, Inc. v. PreferredOne Ins. Co., 09-2019
In an insurance company's third-party suit for indemnification against a wholesale insurance broker in Minnesota state court, arising from a lawsuit brought by an insured for improperly rescinding an insurance policy, district court's dismissal of the insurance broker's suit against the insurance company in an Illinois federal court is affirmed as the third-party proceedings in Minnesota are parallel to the federal case and it was not an abuse of discretion for the district court to abstain from hearing the declaratory action under the Wilton/Brillhart abstention doctrine.
