A B.C. Supreme Court judge says a lawsuit against insurance companies over the alleged theft of eagle sculptures made of gold and silver can proceed despite years of 91裸聊视频渋nordinate and inexcusable91裸聊视频� delays.

The ruling posted Tuesday says Forgotten Treasures International91裸聊视频檚 lawsuit against Lloyd91裸聊视频檚 Underwriters, HUB International and others can proceed, even though it91裸聊视频檚 been more than six years since the suit was filed.

The case was originally filed in 2018, nearly two years after the alleged theft of the gem-encrusted sculptures.

Forgotten Treasures owner Ron Shore says he was violently robbed of the sculptures that were among prizes for a treasure hunt held by the company to raise money for cancer research.

The ruling says the gold version is valued at more than $1 million and the silver piece around $50,000.

It says Shore insured the sculptures with Lloyd91裸聊视频檚 and Endeavour Insurance Services, through a policy brokered by HUB, and years of legal wrangling ensued.

Forgotten Treasures at one point won a default judgment against Lloyd91裸聊视频檚.

The judge91裸聊视频檚 new ruling says Shore 91裸聊视频渨asted two years91裸聊视频� trying to preserve the default judgment and avoid having to take the case to court on its merits.

But even with the delays, the judge found it was in the 91裸聊视频渋nterests of justice to allow the claim to proceed.91裸聊视频�
