Supreme Court of Florida

Government Employees Insurance Co. v. Grounds

April 7, 19761976 Fla. LEXIS 4332

Summary

The Supreme Court of Florida expunged language that characterized an excess judgment action for bad faith as a hybrid tort/contract claim because it conflicted with the Court's prior decision in Nationwide Mutual Ins. Co. v. McNulty, and consequently dismissed the petition for a writ of certiorari.
