Before Cane, P.J., LaRocque and Myse, JJ.


CANE, P.J.

Donald Hills appeals a summary judgment in favor of his insurer, General Casualty Company of Wisconsin, that declared General Casualty has no duty to defend or indemnify Hills in a separate third-party suit brought against Hills in federal court. Because we conclude General Casualty's insurance policies require it to defend and indemnify Hills in the federal action, we reverse and remand for further proceedings.
