Hennessy Industries, Inc. v. Nat’l Union Fire Ins. Co. of Pittsburgh, PA

Dist. Ct. erred in denying defendant’s motion to order arbitration of plaintiff’s lawsuit alleging that it was entitled to attorney fees under section 155 of Insurance Code, where defendant had allegedly delayed providing coverage to plaintiff for underlying asbestos claims pursuant to parties’ agreement. Parties’ agreement contained clause that required arbitration for any “dispute” that called for interpretation of said agreement, and instant claim for fees was such dispute.
