Petition for Writ of Certiorari GRANTED.
Whether, after the legislative abrogation of Passamano v. Travelers Indemnity Co., 882 P.2d 1312 (Colo. 1994), a "motor vehicle rental company" may be considered a statutory or de facto "insurer," where its rental agreement incidentally offers customers the option of purchasing insurance coverage provided by a licensed, third-party insurer under the rental company's own pre-existing policy with that insurer.
