Robert E. Wier.
Magistrate Judge Wier filed his Report and Recommendation [Docket No. 133] wherein
he recommends that Plaintiff Ohio Casualty Company's Renewed Motions for Pattial Summmy
Judgment and Third-Party Defendants' Motion for Summary Judgment be sustained and

recommendation well taken and shall adopt the same as and for its own opinion,
