                          and No:  05-2276
   Eastern District of Arkansas   
   [PUBLISHED] [Arnold, Author, with Wollman and Gruender, Circuit Judges]
Civil case - Insurance. Insurer was under no statutory duty to provide insured with a notice of termination, and the district court erred in concluding violation of Ark. Code Ann. Sec. 23-79-3063(B) could serve as the basis for a breach of contract claim in the circumstances of this case; misstatements in letter concerning coverage did not amount to a violation of Rule 43 of the Arkansas Insurance Department; under Arkansas law, the equitable estoppel doctrine may not be used to enlarge or extend coverage or to create an insurance contract; district court erred in finding two accounting firms had not completed a merger for purposes of determining whether one of the merged companies' coverage applied to the underlying claims.
