181735P.pdf 07/12/2019 Acuity, A Mutual Insurance Co. v. Rex, LLC
U.S. Court of Appeals Case No: 18-1735
U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Missouri - Cape Girardeau
[PUBLISHED] [Gruender, Author, with Wollman and Shepherd, Circuit Judges]
Civil case - Insurance. Acuity has not waived its right to appeal the
district court's order requiring it to deposit $21 million into the
court's registry by dismissing its interpleader claim as the motion to
dismiss was involuntary in light of the court's ruling; subject-matter
jurisdiction over Acuity's interpleader action is lacking because it did
not deposit the disputed amount into the court's registry; the district
court did not err in finding it did not have personal jurisdiction over
the victims of the accident giving rise to this dispute. Judge Shepherd
concurring in part and concurring in the judgment.
