  • Reliance Insurance Company in Liquidation No
    IN THE COMMONWEALTH COURT OF PENNSYLVANIA : : : IN RE: : Reliance Insurance Company : NO. 1 REL 2001 In Liquidation : : : : REPORT OF THE LIQUIDATOR ON THE STATUS OF THE LIQUIDATION OF RELIANCE INSURANCE COMPANY AS OF JUNE 30, 2017 I. INTRODUCTION Jessica K. Altman, Acting Insurance Commissioner for the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, in her official capacity as Statutory Liquidator (“Liquidator”) of Reliance Insurance Company (“Reliance or Estate”), through her undersigned counsel, hereby submits this report on the status of the liquidation of Reliance, 1 pursuant to Pa. R.A.P. No. 3784(b), incorporating financial results and claims information through June 30, 2017 (“Report”). II. REPORT A. Financial Statements 1. Special Purpose Statement of Assets and Liabilities Reliance has prepared and attached as Exhibit A, a Special Purpose Statement of Assets and Liabilities showing the financial position of Reliance at June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016 (“Statement”). The loss and loss expense reserves for class (b) claims shown on the Statement are presented on an estimated settlement value basis for reported claims with a timely filed Proof of Claim (“POC”). Pursuant to this Court’s Order issued on June 10, 2016, Reliance has established loss and loss expense reserves at estimated settlement value by discounting the medical and indemnity portion of workers compensation claims reserves to present value. Due to the inherent complexity of both the loss reserving process and the estimation of settlement value, the actual emergence of losses and the amounts ultimately included in any negotiated settlement with claimants, both insureds and Guaranty Associations (“GAs”), and the Notices of Determination (“NODs”) issued for those settlements may be significantly different than the estimates included in the Statement.

  • 2010-11 Annual Repor
    Dear Friends, There is nothing more tragic than the suffering of a child. Each year, approximately 120,000 Pennsylvania children receive child-welfare services. More than 3,000 children are victims of child abuse, and many more experience domestic or sexual violence that fall outside the official definition of child abuse. Over the last eight “Together we can begin years, more than 350 Pennsylvania children died as a result of child abuse. The Support Center for Child Advocates (Child Advocates) provides legal and social the transformation process in services to children in Philadelphia who have been abused and neglected and are the lives of the children who facing the uncertainty of the child welfare system. Appointed to represent children in some of the most complex cases in Philadelphia’s dependency and criminal courts depend upon and richly – sibling groups, kids in kinship care, medically-needy boys and girls, and young victims of sexual abuse – our caseload is ever increasing. We served 838 children deserve our help.” during our Fiscal Year 2010 and 873 during Fiscal Year 2011. Every one of the children has a story. When they come to us, it is one of trauma and pain, but through the dedication of our volunteer attorneys, and with the guidance of Child Advocates social workers and lawyers, these stories become tales of triumph. Although these numbers and needs are disheartening, we are fortunate that so many people in the community come together to make a difference in each child’s life. We are indebted to many for advice, support and advocacy, with whose help we can meet the needs of these kids and bring them a better chance for a happily ever after.
