Description
This appeal is before this court on certification from the court of appeals, pursuant to sec. (Rule) 809.61, Stats., 1 and is from an order of the circuit court for Kenosha county, Earl D. Morton, circuit Judge, granting a motion to dismiss Rural Mutual Insurance Company (Rural) from this action pursuant to a Loy Release/Covenant Not To Sue executed by the plaintiffs. We affirm the order of the circuit court. This case arises from an accident involving a motorcycle driven by the plaintiff, Michael J. Teigen, and a school bus owned by the defendant, Jelco of Wisconsin, Inc. (Jelco). Michael Teigen suffered extensive personal injuries as a result of the accident, and, consequently, Michael and his parents commenced this action. The defendants include Jelco; Jelco's primary insurer, Rural; and Jelco's excess insurer, Mission Insurance Company (Mission). 2 Rural's insurance policy with Jelco provides primary coverage up to $500,000. Mission's insurance policy with Jelco provides excess coverage of $2,000,000 over and above the primary coverage afforded by Rural. The amended complaint seeks damages on the cause of action for Michael Teigen in the sum of $1,800,000 and on the cause of action for Michael's parents, Claire and Marilyn Teigen, in the sum of $200,000.
