Kernrechtsfrage
Whether SWICA had standing to appeal because it faced possible liability for ongoing benefits
Extrahierter Entscheid
Yes. SWICA had a protectable interest because the insured had confirmed that its proceedings were still pending and SWICA could be called upon for benefits.
Extrahierte Begründung
Standing exists where a third-party insurer may still be required to pay benefits to the insured. SWICA had been informed that its own proceedings were still open, so it had to reckon with a future claim.
