I will be giving two presentations as part of the upcoming New York State Bar Association 2005 Insurance Coverage Update (see pamphlet here Download ny_cle.pdf ). On April 29, 2005, I will be presenting on the following topic: Will the no prejudice rule survive? - Late Notice and Untimely Disclaimer Update. This presentation will take place in Syracuse, New York. I will also present on the following topic in Albany: Bad Faith.
If you need any further information or material, please feel free to drop me a line. If you decided to attend, please come up and introduce yourself.
3L @ Syracuse University College of Law; question about bad faith litigation in NY state since ACQUISTA:
(1)Has any jury in New York since ACQUISTA actually awarded damages in excess of the policy limits (ie. followed ACQUISTA)?
(2) Where is the political impetus for SN 3726 and SN 1382(attempts to expand the insurance law to include entities besides traditional insurers and to strike the systematic business practice language in 2601) coming from? What is the legislative status of those propsed amendments?
