Description
On 11 May 1993, plaintiff Evelyn C. Jacobs was injured when the automobile she was driving was struck by Alfredo J. Rocha. Rocha, though uninsured, had rented the car from Pass Rent-A-Car, a Florida corporation. Plaintiff's insurance company was the defendant-appellant, Royal Insurance Company of America (""Royal""). On 22 November 1994, plaintiff filed suit against Rocha. On 30 October 1995, a default judgment was entered against Rocha in the amount of $30,000 plus interest and costs. On 4 April 1996, plaintiff filed a declaratory judgment action against Royal alleging that Royal was liable for the entire judgment under an uninsured motorist policy issued to plaintiff by Royal. On 15 August 1996, plaintiff filed a motion to add Calvert Insurance Company (""Calvert"") because Calvert had issued a policy of liability insurance covering the vehicle in question ""for claims in excess of $100,000.00."" On 3 October 1996 Plaintiff filed an amended complaint alleging that Calvert must provide the minimum amount of liability insurance as mandated by North Carolina's Fiscal Responsibility Act, G.S. 279.21, et seq.
