California Court of Appeal
Baldwin v. AAA Northern California, Nevada and Utah Insurance Exchange, 142217
In an action against an insurer alleging breach of action and bad faith because defendant refused to fully compensate plaintiff for collision-related damages to his vehicle as required under his insurance policy and under the insurance policy of a drive involved in the collision, the trial court's dismissal with prejudice of the complaint is affirmed where: 1) plaintiff's argument that the policy exclusion violated public policy and was void is without merit; and 2) plaintiff cannot state a cause of action for bad faith against insurer-defendant based on co-defendant's insurance policy.
