Thurston County Insurance Coverage Appeal Is Successful

January 3, 2005. GMT was appointed Special Counsel to Thurston County for purposes of prosecuting an insurance coverage appeal regarding defense and coverage determinations by the Washington Counties Risk Pool under the Pool's joint self-insurance program. The dispute involved the number of deductibles applicable to two discrimination lawsuits filed against the County. The Executive Committee of the Risk Pool held a hearing in December 2004 (as an administrative exhaustion requirement prior to formal coverage litigation) to consider the appeal.

The Executive Committee has ruled in favor of Thurston County, thus ending the dispute. Jim Murray and Christie Snyder were involved in the representation of Thurston County.
