ORDER

On December 12, 2016, State Farm Fire and Casualty Company
filed a motion to intervene in this case for purposes of seeking
a ruling as to coverage owed to Defendant Sandy Richey, whom it
is defending under a reservation of rights, and also to
participate in discovery and, if necessary, to submit jury
interrogatories and instructions if the case goes to trial.
party has opposed the motion.

No

The motion (Doc. 22) is therefore

granted, and the Clerk is directed to detach and file the
pleading attached to the motion.

Should there be a disagreement

in the future as to the proper scope of State Farm’s
participation in the case, the Court will resolve any such issues
as they arise.
