Subrogation Suit Seeks To Recover From Claim Against Transportation Contractor

The insurance company that paid $234,621 to Hanover Area School District in compensation for a dispute with a transportation contractor launched civil action against the contractor, according to court records.

Attorney Richard Polachek, of Polachek Law Firm, P.., filed a one-page praecipe for summons in Luzerne county Court of Common Pleas this week.

The praecipe is essentially the first step for a civil suit. It offers no particulars other than the names of the parties involved.

In this case, Polachek, of Wilkes-Barre, is filing on behalf of American Alternative Insurance Corporation of Princeton New Jersey.

The praecipe lists the insurance company as “subrogee” of Hanover School District.
