2000s

    • 1st Judicial Dist of Santa Fe NM
    • Amicus brief filed in opposition to motion for class certification. Issue briefed is the nationwide class action certification would be inappropriate because state laws governing disclosure of model premium rates as well as policyholder right to remedies differ from state to state; certification would defeat regulators’ ability to regulate according to respective state laws. Motion for leave to file brief denied.
  • 2008 – LC – Dixie National Life v. Martha Ward – NAIC – Amicus Brief – 23p

The proper interpretation of the term “actual charges” stated in an insurance policy is within the area of expertise of the South Carolina Department of Insurance, which is Congressionally delegated broad authority to regulate the business of insurance and statutorily mandated to review and approve insurance policies, identify and resolve any ambiguity, respond to consumer inquiries and investigate disputes between insurers and insureds.
