Pennsylvania Statutes Title 40 P.S. Insurance § 991.1819. Stay of proceedings and reopening of default judgments

(a) All proceedings in which the insolvent insurer is party or is obligated to defend a party in any court in this Commonwealth shall be stayed for ninety (90) days from the date the insolvency is determined to permit proper defense by the association of all pending causes of action.

(b) As to any covered claims arising from a judgment under any decision, verdict or finding based on the default of the insolvent insurer or its failure to defend an insured, the association, either on its own behalf or on behalf of such insured, may apply to have such judgment, order, decision, verdict or finding set aside by the same court that made such judgment, order, decision, verdict or finding and shall be permitted to defend against such claim on the merits.
