Whitney orders a car insurance company and a driver who was injured in a collision in 2018 to submit supplemental briefs detailing whether the court should exercise its jurisdiction to resolve a policy coverage dispute in North Carolina or wait until an underlying suit in South Carolina is resolved. The collision occurred in South Carolina. Although the insurance of the driver at fault paid out according to its limit of $100,000 on the injured driver’s claim, he alleges that the costs of treatment for his injuries exceed this amount. The insurance company claims the injured driver is not entitled to additional coverage under its uninsured motorist policy because he failed to comply with certain notice provisions under North Carolina state law and the uninsured motorist policy. Thus, both parties must submit supplemental briefs to proceed.
