Non-party insurer lacks standing to object to a Pierringer Agreement order between plaintiffs and settling defendants.
The plaintiffs sought to settle an order approving a Pierringer Agreement with the settling defendants.
A non-party insurer, who was a defendant in a separate action brought by one of the plaintiffs, objected to the wording of the order, arguing it would affect its rights.
The court held that the non-party insurer had no standing to object to the order in this action and signed the draft order as agreed to by the parties.
