Opinion

Per Curiam.

Petitioner Division of State Group Insurance seeks a writ of prohibition, arguing that the circuit court lacks jurisdiction over Respondent’s suit alleging wrongful denial of insurance claims. Because the circuit court has indicated it has left open the issue of whether Respondent has exhausted her administrative remedies and intends to rule on the issue later in the lower tribunal proceedings, Petitioner is not entitled to prohibition. The petition is therefore denied.

Roberts, Rowe, and Winokur, JJ., concur.
