EMPIRE FIRE & MARINE INSURANCE COMPANY, A FOREIGN CORPORATION, PLAINTIFF-APPELLANT,v.CLARENDON INSURANCE COMPANY, SCHAUMBURG TOYOTA, INC., LAKESHORE AUTO SALES, INC., FLORENCE NICPON, NANCY RIESCO, JUDITH ARNOLD, AND RAMONA CIMBALLO, DEFENDANTS-APPELLEES.
Rehearing Denied November 30, 1994. Released for Publication December 16, 1994.
Murray, Gordon, Cousins, Jr.
PRESIDING JUSTICE MURRAY delivered the opinion of the court:
Empire Fire & Marine Insurance Company (Empire) appeals the denial of its summary judgment motion and the grant of Clarendon Insurance Company's *fn1 (Clarendon) cross-motion for summary judgment in a declaratory judgment action regarding insurance coverage in relation to an August 4, 1989, auto accident. The facts giving rise to this appeal are as follows:
A multi-vehicle automobile accident occurred on August 4, 1989, while defendant Florence Nicpon (Nicpon), a "car hiker" for defendant Lakeshore Auto Sales, Inc. (Lakeshore), was returning a 1987 Dodge Dakota from Lakeshore's location in Zion, Illinois, to defendant Schaumburg Toyota, Inc. (Schaumburg) in Schaumburg. Lakeshore had intended to purchase the 1987 Dodge Dakota from Schaumburg, but allegedly rejected the vehicle due to its failure to conform to representations made by Schaumburg based upon a defective paint job. Allegedly Schaumburg agreed that Lakeshore could return the vehicle. Nicpon, a "car hiker" who had worked for Lakeshore for the past several months, was then assigned to return the Dakota to Schaumburg.
Nicpon, while leading a group of three other car hikers, allegedly crossed the median on Palatine Road resulting in a number of collisions and injuring, among others, Judith Arnold (Arnold) and Ramona Cimballo (Cimballo). Arnold and Cimballo filed lawsuits to recover for personal injury damages sustained during this accident. The Arnold suit (Docket No. 90 L 5301) claimed, in count I, that Lakeshore owned the Dodge Dakota and that Nicpon was an agent, servant or employee of Lakeshore. Alternatively, in count II, the Arnold suit claimed that Schaumburg owned the vehicle and that Nicpon was its agent, servant or employee. The Cimballo suit (Docket No. 90 L 19944) named only Nicpon and Lakeshore as defendants. Cimballo alleged that she was injured as a result of a collision with a Dodge Dakota, which was in the possession and control of Lakeshore and operated by Nicpon, who was Lakeshore's employee.
Subsequently, Empire, Lakeshore's insurer, tendered the entire defense of the Arnold and Cimballo lawsuits to Clarendon, Schaumburg's insurer, claiming that Clarendon's policy of insurance provided primary coverage for all defendants named in both suits. Clarendon rejected the tender. Empire then filed a declaratory judgment action and moved for summary judgment, claiming that, as a matter of law, Clarendon's policy of insurance provided primary coverage for all defendants. Clarendon filed a cross-motion for summary judgment, claiming that, as a matter of law, its policy of insurance did not cover Nicpon or Lakeshore and, therefore, they had no duty to defend these parties. After a hearing on the motions, the trial court issued an order denying Empire's motion, but granting Clarendon's cross-motion for summary judgment, finding that the Dodge Dakota was not a "covered auto" under Clarendon's policy of insurance. It is from this order that Empire appeals.
On appeal, Empire does not deny that Lakeshore and Nicpon tendered the defense of the law suits to it and that they are insureds under its policy of insurance. Rather, Empire contends that the Dodge Dakota being returned to Schaumburg from Lakeshore was a "covered auto" under both the Empire and Clarendon insurance policies and that, pursuant to Clarendon's policy provisions, the Clarendon policy afforded primary coverage. In support of this position, Empire contends that Nicpon was an "insured" under Clarendon's policy of insurance because she was working in furtherance of Schaumburg's "garage operations" and that ownership of the Dakota and the attendant risk of loss remained with Schaumburg because Lakeshore properly rejected the vehicle as a nonconforming good. Finally, Empire argues that its tender of the defense of the underlying cases was sufficient to trigger coverage under Clarendon's policy of insurance for Nicpon and Lakeshore.
Clarendon, on the other hand, argues that it owes no duty to defend Nicpon or Lakeshore in either underlying action because, as the trial court properly determined, the Dakota was not a "covered auto" at the time of the accident pursuant to the provisions of its policy of insurance. Clarendon's policy provision states that a "covered auto" is one that is in the actual possession or control of the insured (Schaumburg) or its bailee. Clarendon argues that, since the allegations in the complaints charge that Nicpon was Lakeshore's agent and that Lakeshore owned, possessed or controlled the Dakota, the allegations in the complaints take Nicpon and Lakeshore outside the parameters of Clarendon's policy of insurance. Clarendon also denies that Nicpon was acting in furtherance of Schaumburg's garage operations.
It is Clarendon's position that it was proper for the trial court to interpret its policy provisions and determine that Lakeshore and Nicpon were not insureds. In so doing, Clarendon claims the trial court correctly determined that Empire's motion for summary judgment should be denied and Clarendon's motion should be granted.
In the alternative, however, Clarendon argues that a second basis exists for upholding the trial court's ruling. Clarendon contends that its duty to defend Lakeshore and Nicpon was never triggered because Lakeshore and Nicpon looked only to Empire for a defense and they never tendered or authorized the tender of the defense of the underlying actions to Clarendon.
It should also be noted that two motions have been filed with this court and have been taken with the case. First, a motion by Ramona Cimballo for leave to file a brief in support of Empire, and, second, a motion by Empire for leave to file an additional brief on the issues of waiver and estoppel.
For reasons that follow we affirm the trial court's denial of summary judgment to Empire, but reverse the trial court's order granting summary judgment to Clarendon. The motions before this court and taken with the case are also denied at this time.
Settled law in Illinois recognizes that an insurer owes an insured two duties, the duty to defend and the duty to indemnify. The two duties are not coextensive. An insurer's duty to defend or, if a conflict of interest exists, to provide for a defense, is determined by the allegations contained within the complaint. ( Maryland Casualty Co. v. Peppers (1976), 64 Ill. 2d 187, 355 N.E.2d 24; Central Mutual Insurance Co. v. Kammerling (1991), 212 Ill. App. 3d 744, 571 N.E.2d 806, 156 Ill. Dec. 826.) The insurer's obligation is triggered when the insured, or someone acting on behalf of the insured, tenders the defense of an action which alleges facts that fall within, or potentially within, the policy's coverage. Institute of London Underwriters v. Hartford Fire Insurance Co. (1992), 234 Ill. App. 3d 70, 599 N.E.2d 1311, 175 Ill. Dec. 297.) This duty exists even if the allegations in the complaint are groundless, false or fraudulent ( Insurance Co. of Pennsylvania v. Protective Insurance Co. (1992), 227 Ill. App. 3d 360, 592 N.E.2d 117, 169 Ill. Dec. 630) and if only one of several theories of recovery alleged in the complaint potentially falls within the policy's coverage ( United States Fidelity & Guaranty Co. v. Wilkin Insulation Co. (1991), 144 Ill. 2d 64, 578 N.E.2d 926, 161 Ill. Dec. 280). If an insurer is in doubt as to its duty to defend, it should seek a declaratory judgment as to its rights and obligations, or defend under a reservation of rights, or both. ( Insurance Co. of Pennsylvania v. Protective Insurance Co., 227 Ill. App. 3d at 365.) However, a declaratory judgment action to determine an insurer's duty to defend will be deemed premature if, in resolving the question, one must look beyond the allegations of the complaint or if issues crucial to the underlying action would be decided, thereby precluding one or more theories of recovery. Thornton v. Paul (1978), 74 Ill. 2d 132, 384 N.E.2d 335, 23 Ill. Dec. 541; Maryland Casualty Co. v. Peppers, 64 Ill. 2d at 197, 355 N.E.2d at 30.
In the present case, Empire does not contest the fact that the allegations in the underlying Arnold and Cimballo actions alleged facts which brought Lakeshore and Nicpon potentially within the coverage of its policy. Thus, once Lakeshore and Nicpon tendered the defense of the actions to Empire, there is no doubt that Empire owed them the duty to defend them or, if a conflict of interest existed, to provide for their defense. Empire concedes this point but, nonetheless, sought a declaratory judgment that Clarendon, too, owed Lakeshore and Nicpon a duty to defend, and that Clarendon's policy provided primary coverage.
Based upon the principles stated above, the first matter to be considered is whether the allegations in either complaint placed Lakeshore or Nicpon within, or potentially within, the coverage of the policy Clarendon provided Schaumburg. Looking at the Arnold complaint, it can be seen that the complaint alleges, in alternative counts, that Nicpon is the agent, servant or employee of either Lakeshore or Schaumburg. It seems clear, therefore, that the Arnold complaint alleges facts that would bring Nicpon potentially within the coverage of the policy Clarendon provided to Schaumburg. Furthermore, if Empire's duty to defend Lakeshore and Nicpon, its alleged agent, servant or employee, was triggered by Lakeshore's tender, Clarendon's obligation to defend Schaumburg and its alleged agent, servant, or employee (Nicpon) would also be triggered by Schaumburg's tender to Clarendon. We find, therefore, that Clarendon owes Nicpon a duty to defend under the Schaumburg policy equal to that of Empire's duty under Lakeshore's policy.
Nevertheless, Empire's declaratory judgment action seeking a ruling that Clarendon's policy provided primary coverage was premature and the trial court properly denied the motion. This is because the resolution of the issue of primary coverage would require the trial court to determine which of the two parties, Schaumburg or Lakeshore, owned the Dodge Dakota at the time of the accident. This issue is a hotly contested issue of fact and one of the ultimate issues upon which recovery is predicated. Thus, it would be inappropriate and an abuse of discretion for the trial court to make such a determination.
For similar reasons, we must find that the trial court abused its discretion in ruling that Clarendon owed no duty to defend or indemnify either Lakeshore or Nicpon. In so holding the trial court went beyond the allegations of the Arnold complaint and determined that, at the time of the accident, the Dodge Dakota was not in the actual possession of Schaumburg or its bailee and, thus, was not a "covered auto" within the terms of Clarendon's policy of insurance. However, as stated above, since Nicpon was alleged to have been the agent, servant or employee of both Lakeshore and Schaumburg, the resolution of this issue would be a premature determination of one of the ultimate facts upon which recovery was predicated. Therefore, we reverse the portion of the trial court's order granting Clarendon's motion for summary judgment.
In light of our resolution of the issues on appeal, we find it unnecessary to address the motion by Cimballo to intervene in the appeal or the motion by Empire to file an additional brief to raise new matters. These motions, which were taken with the case, are hereby denied.
The order of the circuit court denying Empire's motion for summary judgment is affirmed, the order granting Clarendon's motion for summary judgment is reversed.
GORDON, J., concurs.
COUSINS, JR., J., concurs in part and Dissents in part.
JUSTICE COUSINS, JR., Concurring in part and Dissenting in part:
[The following material labeled "Background" is non publishable under Supreme Court Rule 23.]
[The preceding material, labeled "Background" is non publishable under Supreme Court Rule 23. The following is publishable.]
I concur in part and Dissent in part for the reasons which follow:
Contrary to the majority opinion, the primary issue in the instant appeal is not who "owned the Dodge Dakota at the time of the accident." The primary issue in this appeal is whether the auto was in the "actual possession of the insured (Schaumburg) or bailee of the insured" at the time of the accident. Based on the pleadings and depositions, the trial court properly found that there was no coverage under the Clarendon policy. Therefore, summary judgment was properly granted in favor of Clarendon (Schaumburg's insurer).
Schaumburg's insurance policy with Clarendon clearly excludes coverage in the instant case. The Clarendon policy states in relevant part:
"'Covered auto' means an automobile owned or hired by or consigned to the named insured which is:
a. held for sale, or
b. used in the automobile business of the insured, or
c. a customer rental auto, or
d. a company auto, or
e. held by the insured pending removal from the insured's premises after sale."
All only while the covered autos are in the actual possession of the insured or bailee of the insured. (Emphasis added).
The trial court correctly concluded that the pick-up truck was not a "covered auto" under the Clarendon policy as it was not in the "actual possession" of Schaumburg Toyota or its bailee at the time of the accident. Thus, Clarendon owed no duty to defend Lakeshore or its car hiker.
In Illinois, an insurer must defend when a complaint has been filed against the insured and the allegations are sufficient to bring the case potentially within coverage. ( Maryland Casualty Co. v. Peppers (1976), 64 Ill. 2d 187, 193, 355 N.E.2d 24. Thornton v. Paul (1978), 74 Ill. 2d 132, 144, 384 N.E.2d 335, 23 Ill. Dec. 541.) This court has stated that "if the complaint contains allegations which if true would exclude coverage under the policy, the insurer has no obligation to defend." ( Associated Indemnity Co. v. Insurance Co. of North America (1979), 68 Ill. App. 3d 807, 817, 386 N.E.2d 529, 25 Ill. Dec. 258.)(Emphasis added). "Primary insurance coverage is coverage whereby, under the terms of the policy, liability attaches immediately upon the happening of the event that gives rise to liability." ( Federal Ins. Co. v. Economy Fire & Casualty Co. (1989), 189 Ill. App. 3d 732, 738, 545 N.E.2d 541, 136 Ill. Dec. 1017.) Furthermore, where the trial court properly holds that an insurance company has no duty to defend, it may also find that the insurer has no duty to indemnify, Altaf v. Hanover Square Condominium Association (1989), 188 Ill. App. 3d 533, 542, 544 N.E.2d 1032, 136 Ill. Dec. 257.
Two conditions must be met before an insurer's duty to defend arises: (1) the action must be brought against an insured (emphasis added), and (2) the allegations of the complaint must disclose potential coverage under the policy (emphasis added). ( Employers Mutual Cos. v. Country Cos. (1991), 211 Ill. App. 3d 586, 591, 570 N.E.2d 528, 156 Ill. Dec. 52; Federal Insurance Co, 189 Ill. App. 3d 732, 735, 136 Ill. Dec. 1017, 545 N.E.2d 541; Murphy v. Peterson, (1984), 129 Ill. App. 3d 952, 957, 473 N.E.2d 480, 85 Ill. Dec. 112.) Clarendon properly declined to defend allegations where its named insured was not covered under the Clarendon policy. Neither condition was met in the instant case.
The Riesco and Cimbalo lawsuits fail to name Schaumburg Toyota as a defendant. The Cimbalo lawsuit alleges:
"At the time and place alleged herein, LAKESHORE AUTO SALES, INC., employed one FLORENCE R. NICPON as a driver and directed said FLORENCE R. NICPON to drive a certain Dodge Dakota Pick-Up Truck in possession and control of Defendant LAKESHORE AUTO SALES, INC., to SCHAUMBURG TOYOTA, INC., in Schaumburg, Illinois."
This is the sole allegation in the Cimbalo complaint which even mentions Schaumburg Toyota. Count I of the Arnold lawsuit alleges that Lakeshore "owned" the pick-up truck and that Lakeshore, acting through its "agent and/or employee" Nicpon, was guilty of negligence.
Taking these allegations as true in accord with well-established Illinois law ( Associated Indemnity Co., 68 Ill. App. 3d 807, 817, 386 N.E.2d 529, 25 Ill. Dec. 258; Sheppard, Morgan & Schwaab, Inc. v. United States Fidelity & Guaranty Co, (1976), 44 Ill. App. 3d 481, 484, 358 N.E.2d 305, 3 Ill. Dec. 138), Clarendon owed no duty to defend Lakeshore and its car hiker with respect to a pick-up truck which Lakeshore "owned" or which was in Lakeshore's "possession and control" when the accident took place while Lakeshore's car hiker was driving it.
In the trial court, Empire made no claim whatsoever that Lakeshore was Schaumburg Toyota's bailee. The following colloquy took place between Empire's counsel and the trial court at the hearing on April 26, 1993:
"THE COURT: Who was the bailee?
[EMPIRE'S COUNSEL]: The bailee is Florence Nicpon, the driver. (Emphasis added)."
The plaintiff must provide some factual basis which would arguably entitle Empire to judgment. A triable issue precluding summary judgment exists only where material facts are disputed. ( Ray v. City of Chicago (1960), 19 Ill. 2d 593, 169 N.E.2d 73.) When the case came before the trial court on cross-motions for summary judgment, all material facts were before the court and the parties agreed that only a question of law was involved. Therefore, the entry of summary judgment for one or the other was proper. Allen v. Meyer, (1958), 14 Ill. 2d 284, 292, 152 N.E.2d 576; Wenger v. Finley (1989), 185 Ill. App. 3d 907, 911, 541 N.E.2d 1220, 133 Ill. Dec. 782.
It is noteworthy that Lakeshore has never tendered the defense to Schaumburg Toyota or Clarendon. Empire did not file its action against Clarendon in the lower court at either the request of or on behalf of Lakeshore and Nicpon. On the contrary, Empire has named them as defendants. Also, neither Lakeshore, Nicpon, Riesco, or Arnold have filed briefs or sought to be heard in the instant appeal. Cimbalo has no pending appeal and, in my opinion, has no standing to appeal. The only appellant in the instant case is Empire.
The law in Illinois is that an insurer's obligations under an insurance contract are triggered when the insured tenders an action potentially within the policy coverage. ( Institute of London Underwriters v. Hartford Fire Insurance Co. (1992), 234 Ill. App. 3d 70, 73, 599 N.E.2d 1311, 175 Ill. Dec. 297; Hartford Accident & Indemnity Co. v. Gulf Ins. Co., (7th Cir. 1985) 776 F.2d 1380; Solo Cup Co. v. Federal Insurance Co., (7th Cir. 1980) 619 F.2d 1178, 1183. Coverage cannot be triggered by tender from a rival insurer. ( Institute of London Underwriters, 234 Ill. App. 3d at 75.) Here, neither Lakeshore nor Nicpon, through their agents or attorneys, requested Clarendon's or Schaumburg Toyota's assistance. To the contrary, Empire admitted that Nicpon and Lakeshore tendered only to it. Empire never made the representation that it was acting upon or at the request of, Nicpon or Lakeshore. The criteria for a proper tender require that a specific request for the insurer's assistance must be made by an insured (emphasis added), or person authorized to act on behalf of the insured, and be made in a timely manner. ( Institute of London Underwriters, 234 Ill. App. 3d at 75.) Even where an insurer is aware that its own insured is sued, there must be a tender in order to trigger coverage. In the absence of a proper tender, the insurer is not required to defend or indemnify a claim (emphasis added). ( Institute of London Underwriters, 234 Ill. App. 3d at 76.) Although the trial court did not reach this issue, this court can affirm for any reason appearing on this record. Leavitt v. Farwell Tower Limited Partnership (1993), 252 Ill. App. 3d 260, 265, 625 N.E.2d 48, 192 Ill. Dec. 88. See also Hartford Accident & Indemnity Co. v. Gulf Insurance Co. (7th Cir. 1985), 776 F.2d 1380.
Accordingly, I concur with that part of the opinion which affirms the trial court's dismissal of Empire's motion. However, I Dissent from the reversal of the trial court's grant of Clarendon's cross motion for summary judgment.

Sasaki departs for Mexico
By Joe Koizumi
OPBF super-light champ Motoki Sasaki (36-8-1, 23 KOs), a cagey veteran of Japan, left for Mexico yesterday (Saturday) to have an ambitious crack at the WBC lightweight belt against Humberto Soto (55-7-2, 32 KOs) this coming Saturday. Sasaki, 35, once experienced a shot at the WBA welter ruler Viacheslav Senchenko only to lose on points in Ukraine in September 2009. But the seasoned campaigner captured the OPBF 140-pound belt by dropping defending titlist Randy Suico en route to a split verdict in July of the previous year and kept it twice by halting Geisler AP and Pansoo Kim to his credit. WBC#12 Sasaki, who previously visited the fight place Cozumel as a traveler, seems willing to cause an upset and bring back the WBC green belt to Tokyo.
Other Guerrero Victorious
By Kurt Wolfheimer
Friday night at Harrington Raceway and Casino, Salisbury Maryland's Alex Guerrero (7-0-1, 4KOs) took another step up the cruiserweight ladder with a one sided second round stoppage of thirty five fight veteran Chris "Cold Steel" Thomas (17-16-2, 14KOs) in the four round main event of the evening.
Guerrero, the older brother of Alex Guerrero seemed relaxed right from the opening moment, snapping sharp jabs which opened up several tight combinations. Thomas of Chicago, Illinois tried to step back and counter but the Salisbury natives' defense was tight and he began to time his opponents advances. Guerrero timed one of those advances late, in the opening round and sent Thomas reeling to the ropes from an overhand right. Guerrero tried to end it and was battering him in the closing seconds, but the bell to end the round temporarily saved him. (more…)

Yori Boy gets 98th win
By Ahmed Santos
In a fight that was turning into a war veteran former champion Luis Ramón "Yori Boy" Campas controversially defeated young power puncher Rogelio "Porky" Medina, in the main event of the card held at the Explanada Tecate of Navojoa, Sonora, México. The result ended in a TKO victory for the local fighter, "Yori Boy" (98-15-1, 77 KOs), who put down "Porky" (25-2, 19 KOs) with a punched that seemed clearly under the beltline, but the referee ruled it as good and started applying the count, and due to that he had to get up, with difficulty, and right after Campas jumped all over him and the third man in the ring acted again –prematurely, to call a halt to the duel, which was scheduled for 10 rounds at middleweight.

Alvarez stops Rhodes
By Gabriel F. Cordero
In a one-sided affair, WBC super welterweight champion Saul "Canelo" Alvarez (37-0-1, 27 KOs) scored a twelfth round TKO over WBC #3 rated Ryan Rhodes (45-5, 31 KOs) on Saturday night at the Arena Vicente Fernandez in Guadalajara, Mexico. Alvarez punished Rhodes for the most part, dropping him in round four. Rhodes didn't punch much as the bout progressed, allowing "Canelo" to compile a big lead. To his credit, Rhodes tried for the KO in the last round, but the bout was waved off by referee Hector Afu after Alvarez landed some good shots.
Unbeaten super featherweight Adrien Broner (21-0, 17 KOs) destroyed Jason Litzau (28-3, 21 KOs) in the first round. Broner trapped Litzau in the corner and battered Litzau to the deck. Time was 2:58. With the win, Broner claimed the vacant USNBC title. Click here for more photos…

Charles finishes Ruiz
By Dave Spencer, FightNews Canada
After weathering a solid body attack in the early going Ali Nestor Charles (11-5-2) scored a knockout victory at the very end of round five, capturing the WBC middleweight Latino title over Mexico's Edgar Ruiz (22-10-1) at the Claude-Robillard Center in Montreal, Quebec. Charles changed the course of the fight in the fourth round where he landed a left uppercut that put Ruiz down to his knees for a count of eight. Ruiz was clearly tiring in the fifth and Charles looked like he was about to score his second knockdown in the dying seconds when a flurry of punches with Ruiz against the ropes and about to go down Charles accidently pushed him down to the canvas. It looked like the mishap would save the Mexican fighter but with the ten second warning sounding Charles jumped right back in and let loose with a flurry that put Ruiz down to his knees for a full count of ten.

Alvarez-Rhodes Preview
By Graham Houston
Although on paper he faces his toughest test, Mexico's Saul Alvarez is a massive favourite to defeat Britain's Ryan Rhodes in their junior middleweight title fight on Saturday (to be televised on HBO's Boxing After Dark). The Mexican location is obviously a big factor, as is Alvarez's impressive, undefeated record. Rhodes has experience and he is a fast, tricky southpaw switch-hitter who can punch, but there is a sense that this fight has been made with perfect timing, similar to the one in Los Angeles earlier this month when Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. gritted out a tough, close win over Sebastian Zbik.

Golovkin, Moreno retain belts
By Gabriel F. Cordero
Unbeaten WBA middleweight champion Gennady Golovkin (21-0, 18 KOs) scored a tenth round TKO over a game, but outgunned former IBF champion Kassim Ouma (27-8-1, 17 KOs)in the first of two WBA world title bouts on Friday night at the Roberto Duran Arena in Panama City, Panama. Ouma was very active with trademark high punch rate, but Golovkin's pressure and harder punches took their toll midway through the fight. Doctors took a long look at Ouma after round eight. Golovkin punished Ouma in a one-sided round nine. The beatdown continued in round ten and the bout was finally waved off. Time was 1:25.
WBA bantamweight super champion Anselmo "Chemito" Moreno (31-1-1, 10 KOs) scored an eighth round TKO of former flyweight champ Lorenzo "Lencho" Parra (31-3-1, 18 KOs) after Parra said he couldn't continue due to a hand injury. It was Moreno's eighth successful defense. (more…)

Filipinos to dispute OPBF belt
By Joe Koizumi
Following the OPBF bantam champ Malcolm Tunacao's latest relinquishment, the vacant regional belt will be disputed by highest available OPBF contenders #1 Jerope Zuiyama Mercado (23-1-3, 8 KOs) and #3 Rolly Matsushita Lunas (28-8-1, 16 KOs) in Kobe, Japan, on July 31. Funny enough, both are Japan-based Filipinos as ex-champ Malcolm. Lunas once fought Anselmo Moreno in a quest for the WBA bantam belt, losing a nearly shutout decision in Panama in 2008. Mercado went abroad and battled Vusi Malinga for the WBC international 118-pound belt to a split draw in South Africa in 2007. It will be a competitive bout with the good and strong campaigners.
Wauke stops Petchsuriya
By Joe Koizumi
Elongated southpaw Japanese, JBC#3/OPBF#14 super-light Yuji Wauke (14-3-1, 7 KOs), 140, engaged in a tune-up go prior to his national title crack and chalked up a quick TKO triumph over Thailander Petchsuriya Looksaikongdin (11-7, 4 KOs), 138.75, with a vicious body shot to the solar-plexus at 0:51 of the second round in a scheduled eight on Friday in Tokyo, Japan. Having failed to win the national 140-pound belt via unanimous decision loss to then-reigning Yosukezan Onodera two years ago, Wauke is gunning for a shot again at the currently vacant belt. The Japanese lefty threw busy combinations followed by a solid shot to the midsection, which collapsed the Thailander in agony with the referee Kumazaki promptly declaring a halt. (more…)

Brewer dropped Guerrero with a series of right hands in round four and finished him moments later with an uppercut. Referee Jon Schorle waved it off at 2:16.
Brewer, best known for winning the popular TV reality series "The Contender" in 2006, claimed the NABF title. Guerrero entered the ring rated WBC #6 at super welterweight and WBO #5/WBA #6/IBF #15 at middleweight.

Chasing the Right Family Attorney
We have to face the reality we may end up having problems in the family. Family conflicts is not a walk in the park and there are times you have to solicit some professional help. It may be a time to get a family lawyer. A family lawyer is something you may have to get when the problem within the family is no longer going to be resolved on its own. Knowing how to get the right attorney will help you improve the chances of getting the best decision. It is best to know how to ask the right questions and be able to look at the situation as it arises.
Getting an attorney, let's face it, attorneys can be a huge pain in the pocket. You may have to spend an arm and a leg when you are getting a lawyer. It is, however, more harmful not to get the right help when you are facing a legal problem about the family. The key thing here is to assess your situation and understand what an attorney can bring to the table. If you are the type of cutting corners, be sure to do it smartly. People have this penchant to think about being practical, without realizing the harm of not getting an attorney's help in a legal matter.
You need to understand not all lawyers are the same. It is best to know what kind of attorney you want to handle your case. Any lawyer can represent you but a special attorney on family law can help you with problems on the family. Key thing here is to understand what the attorney can bring to the table when it comes to family law conflicts. A good family lawyer can be in the best resolve to help your case. It is easy to have any attorney help you but it is unlikely you get a good result if handled by a non-family lawyer. If the problem involves family law such as divorces or even adoption, it is best to get an attorney with the right skill set, experience and expertise in family law.
Do you have friends or family that went through a divorce or have adopted a child? Ask about their experience with a family lawyers. Try to ask them what their experience was and how to get a family lawyer. If you don't have any friend or family to give you any information, try looking on the Internet. The Internet can give you lots of information about where to find a good family attorney near your area.

Marijuana Growers Siphon Electricity From Power Lines
Electricity thieves cost utilities billions of dollars each year, and marijuana growers are some of the biggest culprits.
Awesense, a Vancouver-based company that provides sensors and software to detect energy theft, has found that marijuana growers are heavy energy consumers because they use special energy-hogging lights to make their crops grow faster indoors.
"Electricity is one of the biggest costs for a marijuana-grow facility," said Doug Bunker, VP of channels and alliances for Awesense. "Marijuana grow-ups have been the largest single industry for power theft."
The first wave of marijuana growers just paid their bill, said Bunker, but then the police could easily find them, so they began tapping into either primary or secondary electricity lines. Awesense has noted that even in locales where marijuana is legal, the growers are just as likely to steal power.
The growers tap into lines that are exposed to the air, or they dig to underground lines, or even tap off an existing panel box (pictured). A single grower might steal $5,000 of electricity a year, but an organized ring could steal as much as $400,000 of electricity per year.
Utilities can provide their investigation teams with Awesense's products to "scrub their grid" on a regular basis or place the monitors in areas where they suspect electricity theft. Also, utilities sometimes get inquiries from cutomers to inspect the accuracy of meters. Awesense's monitors can compare the actual electricity usage of a business with its utility bill.

Don't these guys know that they could go solar and be completely organic. Like totally dude!
I suspect billions of dollars is a little high, pardon the pun.
For some scope here, $400K is a drop in the bucket of energy consumed. I lost count of the clients I had that paid well over $500K per year in electricity costs. I had one client who spent $1M per month. Ironic, this little article selling Awesense supports the fact that demand for the weed is very high (pun again, sorry).

The problem is, it'll be in a not so perfect environment, therefore a good mastering job is a must. I don't have a gagillion dollars to spend on it, I know this is going to sound terrible but I need an affordable yet good master. My budget will be around 400 dollars for the whole thing, it'll be about 12 songs. I know thats a stretch for that price, but anyone got any good recommendations? Oh and style of music, think Tom Petty, Ryan Adams, and My Morning Jacket... but less good than those heroes.

Naomi Campbell always looks picture perfect on the runway, but earlier this week the supermodel was spotted with bald patch around her forehead while on holiday with her billionaire boyfriend. Her hair loss may be due to excessive use of hair extensions and weaves for most of her modelling career. The extensions pull on the natural hair causing it to break, and usually affects the hairline just above the forehead or the sides, where the hair is weaker. It may take months or years for the hair to grow back if proper hair care is implemented.

About the LGPS
How do I become a member?
Most individuals who can join the scheme are automatically entered into the LGPS. Those automatically put in are those whose:
- Employers have reached their auto-enrolment date, and
- have a contract of employment of 3 months or more, and
- who earn at least £10,000 per year, and
- are under age 75.
Members who are not automatically enrolled can still choose to join the scheme by completing an Opting In form.
You can find out more about auto enrolment here.
How much will I pay?
How much you pay is based on how much you earn. When you join the scheme and every April afterwards your employer will review your pay to ensure you are paying the correct contribution rate. If your rate changes your employer will notify you. You can use our Pension Contribution Calculator to find out what your contribution rate is.
Note for part time members - from 1 April 2015, your contributions are based on what you actually earn not your full time equivalent pay.
What does my employer pay?
Employer contributions don't increase your pension, rather they help cover the cost of the scheme including administration and pension payments. Generally employers cover 2/3rds of the costs while members pay 1/3rd. In personal or private pension schemes members would typically have to pay for all fees and contributions.
How do I know if I am a member?
If you are a current member of the NESPF you will see pension contributions being deducted from your salary on your pay slip. You will also have been notified of your membership by your employer and the Fund.
10 reasons for joining the LGPS
- Your pension is underwritten by Government, making it guaranteed by law
- Your employer pays in too, covering 2/3rds of the cost
- Tax relief as your pay is taxed after your contributions have been deducted
- Pensions available to your spouse/partner and eligible children in the event of your death
- A tax free lump sum of 3x salary will be paid if you die in service
- Options to pay more or less - boost your pension by paying more or you reduce your contributions
- Option of a tax free lump sum when you retire
- Your pension is payable for life when you retire and will increase in line with the cost of living
- Early retirement available from age 60 or age 55 if you have your employers permission
- Ill health, flexible, redundancy & efficiency retirements available too.
What happens if I leave?
If you leave employment and have less than two years' membership, and have not transferred in other pension rights, you can receive a refund of your contributions or transfer your benefits to another pension scheme.
If you leave employment and have at least two years' membership in the LGPS, or have less than two years' membership but have transferred in other pension rights, the benefits you have built up can remain in the LGPS or be transferred to another pension scheme.
If you choose to leave your benefits in the LGPS, you will become a Deferred Member.
A guide to your options on leaving the Scheme can be found in our Publications Library.
Can I opt out?
The decision to stay in or opt out of the LGPS is entirely your own, but you should consider carefully before making a decision. Members of the LGPS have the security of guaranteed benefits, as well as valuable protection for their families. In addition, your employer contributes about two-thirds of the cost of your benefits; if you contribute to a personal pension plan you will have to bear the full cost yourself.
You can opt out of the LGPS at any time by completing and returning an Opt-Out form to your employer. The Opt-Out form is available from the Publications Library.
We recommend that you obtain independent financial advice before opting-out of the LGPS. You can re-join the LGPS at any time, provided at that time you have a contract of employment for at least three months and you are under 75.
