Description
The issue in this case is whether an insurance carrier has the right to conduct further litigation of a suit brought by third parties against its insured, after the insured has entered into a covenant not to execute with the third parties and successfully moved for the dismissal of its appeal from a judgment in excess of policy limits. In an unpublished opinion, the court of appeals dismissed the appeal of the insured and thereby denied the purported right of the insurer to further pursue the appeal. On the facts of this case, we hold that the right, if any, of the insurance carrier was waived by the voluntary payment of policy limits to the third parties. Accordingly, we dismiss the cause as moot.
