• Police should be REQUIRED BY LAW to have an active insurance policy for general liability, to pay out the lawsuits and police misconduct claims!

    And those cops should also be CRIMINALLY CHARGED under federal law, Title 18 U.S.C. § 241 and 18 U.S.C. § 242 every single time they violate the rights of Americans!


    I have been telling people this for YEARS!

    I install replacement windows for a living.....
    My job REQUIRES me to purchase a ONE MILLION DOLLAR general liability insurance policy. Without it I can't work!

    I DON'T carry a gun, shoot people, taze people, bust out people's car windows, imprison people with torture cuffs, or put people into a cage while I'm at work.....

    I simply install windows, and MUST HAVE liability insurance!

    Don't you think it's beyond reasonable to ask that #Police Officers be REQUIRED BY LAW to carry a general liability insurance policy, just like I have to have, since they DO all of the things listed above!

    They DO carry a gun, they DO commit violence against other Americans, they DO put people into shackles, they DO damage the property of Americans, and they DO harm Americans on a regular basis

    Is it REALLY necessary for ME to be forced to have general liability insurance in order to "Change a window" when we have
    MEN IN BODY ARMOR WITH GUNS AND TASERS who don't have insurance?

    You see..... Police definitely DON'T WANT to be required to purchase their own insurance policy! Do you know WHY???

    I'll tell you... If these Police had their own liability insurance every time that an American citizen wins a case of police brutality or misconduct, and / or wrongful death when they kill the innocent..

    THEIR INSURANCE WOULD HAVE TO PAY THE LAWSUIT!
    And that would make their premiums go up...

    And when it has happened several times
    (Like happens with bad cops) their policy would be CANCELLED leaving them unable to ever work as a police officer again!

    This is something that MUST HAPPEN!
    We can no longer tolerate a #Criminal gang of blue line thugs who are "Above the Law" and are NEVER HELD ACCOUNTABLE!

    And body cameras should be MANDATORY and activated throughout the shift of ALL POLICE OFFICERS!

    If they turn them off it should be an automatic 25 years in prison!

    The body cameras and dash cameras should be LIVE-STREAMED to servers controlled by CITIZEN OVERSIGHT COMMITTEES of regular Americans (Like myself and James Freeman) and to Police headquarters, after a 5 minute delay

    THE AMERICAN PEOPLE should NEVER get a redacted version of the body cameras, after all, THEY ARE THE BOSS!

    Every body camera in America should be viewable after a 5 minute delay, it should be released for ANYONE to look at it, at any time, and for any reason... and under NO CIRCUMSTANCES should it be edited whatsoever!

    STOP enabling criminal behavior by Police!
    STOP enabling criminals to walk free among us!

    DEMAND POLICE ACCOUNTABILITY WITH EVERY BREATHE YOU TAKE, RIGHT UP UNTIL THE VERY LAST ONE!

    Because if you should fail to do this....
    Your children and grandchildren will live as #Slaves and under #Tyranny

  • Bad Faith Set Up Fails

    Inadequate Information Made Refusal to Pay Policy Limits Not Bad Faith

    INADEQUATE MEDICAL AUTHORIZATION USED TO CAUSE INSURER TO REFUSE SETTLEMENT DEMAND

    Post 4930

    Kara Flick appealed from the judgment after a jury rejected her claims for breach of contract and breach of the implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing. Flick contends the judgment should be reversed due to juror misconduct.

    In KARA FLICK v. UNITED SERVICES AUTOMOBILE ASSOCIATION, B330507, California Court of Appeals, Second District, Sixth Division (November 5, 2024) the Court of Appeals resolved the dispute.

    FACTUAL HISTORY

    After sustaining injuries in an automobile accident caused by Francisco Reyes, Jr., Flick had her attorney send Reyes's insurer, the United Services Automobile Association (USAA), a letter explaining the severity of her injuries and an authorization for the release of her medical records. Flick's attorney followed up with a settlement demand two months later, requesting that USAA pay Flick the entirety of Reyes's $100,000 policy limit in exchange for a release of liability. Attached to the demand was a single medical record from Flick's neurologist.

    USAA investigated Flick's claim and determined it did not have sufficient information to accept or reject her demand. Flick then filed a personal injury lawsuit against Reyes. The jury found in her favor and awarded nearly $1.7 million in damages.

    Flick, with an assignment from the Reyes, sued USAA for breach of contract and breach of the implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing.

    TRIAL

    At trial, a USAA claims adjustor admitted that Reyes was fully at fault for the accident with Flick. Reyes could therefore be exposed to liability in excess of his policy limits-if Flick provided sufficient documentation to support her claim.

    USAA's expert on insurance claims handling and another of its claims service managers both agreed with the supervisor that Flick's authorization was invalid and inadequate to allow USAA to obtain Flick's medical records.

    USAA needed additional records before it could determine the value of Flick's claim. Those records could have included the medical bills Flick provided to her own insurance company, the multiple doctor's notes she had excusing her from work, or the thumb drive recording her purported speech problems, all of which were entered into evidence at her personal injury trial. Because they were not provided to USAA, it was "very difficult to place a value on" Flick's claim.

    Flick's expert testified that USAA's handling of the settlement demand "was clearly unreasonable."

    Flick also did not respond to USAA's requests for additional information.

    By a vote of nine to three, the jury found that Flick did not make a reasonable settlement demand of USAA and rejected her claims for breach of contract and breach of the implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing. The trial court polled the jury, and each juror confirmed their vote.

    DISCUSSION

    The Court of Appeals concluded the trial court did not abuse its discretion in denying Flick's new trial motion. USAA successfully rebutted the presumption of prejudice by showing there is no reasonable probability that the juror, D.C.'s misconduct by not explaining he did not hear all of the adjuster's testimony, actually harmed Flick.

    Much of the adjustor's testimony consisted of facts regarding his communications with Flick's attorney - facts that were undisputed.

    What was disputed-whether Flick's settlement demand was reasonable-was the subject of other witness testimony, including USAA's expert on insurance claims handling, its supervising claims service manager, Flick's personal injury attorney, and her expert witness on insurance claims handling.

    What the admitted evidence showed was that D.C. confirmed multiple times that he voted that Flick did not make a reasonable settlement demand:

    Based on this record there was no reasonable probability that D.C.'s alleged juror misconduct actually harmed Flick.

    ZALMA OPINION

    The tort of bad faith arose from abuse by insurers on those they insured. Since its adoption in California about three quarters of a century ago, the abuse has been turned on to insurers. Ms. Flick's counsel placed a demand for settlement on USAA that it could not reasonably and in good faith to its insured, Reyes, because it was incomplete and inadequately supported and forced Flick and Reyes go through a trial where she received an uncollectible judgment against Reyes in hopes of a gigantic bad faith judgment. After much litigation and USAA spending a great deal to defend itself she received the $100,000 policy limit. USAA was punished but neither Flick nor her lawyers profited from the scheme or the appeal.

    The Need to Understand the Mutability of Memory

    Investigators and lawyers believe what they are told by eye witnesses who describe what he or she says with conviction. However, every professional investigator or litigator must know that memory is not necessarily accurate because very few people have a perfect eidetic (photographic) memory. Memory is a fluid and often unreliable human function.

  • Man Bites Dog Story: Fraudsters Arbitration Attempts Stopped

    Arbitration Stayed for Suspected Chiropractors’ Fraudulent No Fault Medical Claims

    In Government Employees Insurance Company, (“GEICO”) v. Didier Demesmin, M.D., et al, No. 23-CV-6191 (ARR) (MMH), United States District Court, E.D. New York (October 23, 2024) GEICO sought to enjoin defendants Manuel A. Mendoza, D.C. and Mendoza Chiropractic Office PC (collectively the “Mendoza Defendants”) from pursuing certain “no-fault” insurance collection arbitrations or initiating new collections proceedings during the pendency of this lawsuit.

    BACKGROUND

    GEICO provides personal injury protection benefits on a “no-fault” basis, which means that, after an accident, insured drivers and their passengers are entitled to certain benefits for medically necessary healthcare services regardless of who was at fault.

    GEICO sued a group of healthcare providers who allegedly carried out an insurance scheme to obtain fraudulent no-fault benefit payments from GEICO. The USDC granted the motion based on its conclusion that (1) GEICO would experience irreparable harm absent a stay, (2) GEICO raised a serious question going to the merits, and (3) the balance of hardships tipped in GEICO’s favor.

    Subsequently, GEICO requested leave to file a second amended complaint to add allegations concerning the Mendoza defendants which was granted.

    In total, GEICO seeks recovery of more than $5.9 million in wrongfully obtained benefits payments from the three groups of defendants, as well as a declaration that it is not obligated to reimburse defendants for outstanding no-fault claims.

    After filing the second amended complaint, GEICO filed the present motion seeking an order staying all pending no-fault benefits arbitrations between GEICO and the Mendoza defendants and enjoining the Mendoza defendants from commencing new collections proceedings during the pendency of this action.

    DISCUSSION

    GEICO Will Experience Irreparable Harm Absent A Stay.

    Irreparable harm is certain and imminent harm for which a monetary award does not adequately compensate. the risk of inconsistent judgments in no-fault insurance disputes can constitute irreparable harm separate and apart from the expenditure of time and money spent on parallel proceedings. As with the parallel proceedings brought by the Demesmin and Khanan defendants, the risk of inconsistent outcomes is great enough to establish irreparable harm.

    GEICO established irreparable harm because permitting arbitrations to proceed will subject it to a risk of judgments that may be inconsistent with future judicial rulings.

    GEICO Has Shown At Least Some Serious Questions Going To The Merits, And The Balance Of Hardships Tips In Its Favor.

    GEICO’s amended complaint details a complex scheme of fraudulent billing and referrals among a network of chiropractic providers. GEICO’s allegations concerning the Mendoza defendants’ role are well developed through numerous examples of charges billed without proper documentation or under suspicious circumstances and a table of more than 45,000 suspect claims.

    The balance of hardships also tips in GEICO’s favor because the Mendoza defendants have not established any hardship, beyond a delay in reimbursement. Because the defendants will presumably be entitled to collect interest on their pending claims if they prevail, the delay does not outweigh the risk of inconsistent outcomes faced by GEICO.

    A Stay Does Not Violate The Anti-Injunction Act.

    The Anti-Injunction Act (“AIA”) prohibits federal courts from enjoining proceedings in state court “except as expressly authorized by Act of Congress, or where necessary in aid of its jurisdiction, or to protect or effectuate its judgments.” 28 U.S.C. § 2283. The AIA does not, however, limit the court’s authority to enjoin ongoing private arbitration proceedings or the court’s authority to enjoin defendants from initiating future state court proceedings.

    GEICO’s motion was granted and a preliminary injunction was issued: staying all pending no-fault insurance collection arbitrations that have been Commenced against GEICO by or on behalf of the Mendoza defendants, pending the disposition of GEICO’s claims in this action, and enjoining the Mendoza defendants and anyone acting on their behalf from commencing new no-fault arbitrations and litigations against GEICO pending the disposition of GEICO’s claims in this action.

    ZALMA OPINION

    The USDC, and other courts dealing with No-Fault auto insurance claims, has acted to help insurers defeat attempted insurance fraud – a crime in each state like New Jersey – which became necessary because state prosecutors seemed to ignore the crimes reported to them by insurers like GEICO. It is essential that insurers be proactive against fraud to shame the insurance fraud investigators in each state to do their job and prosecute the fraud perpetrators. Every insurer, faced with such fraud, should emulate GEICO.

  • Judicial Watch sues Oregon to force state to remove ineligible voters from voter rolls
    https://justthenews.com/nation/states/judicial-watch-sues-oregon-force-state-remove-ineligible-voters-voter-roll
    The lawsuit targets Oregon Secretary of State LaVonne Griffin-Valade, and claims the state has the "highest known inactive registration rate of any state in the nation," according to Judicial Watch.

    Conservative watchdog Judicial Watch on Wednesday announced a lawsuit against the state of Oregon, that would force it to remove ineligible voters from its voter rolls, as mandated by the National Voter Registration Act.

    The voting act requires states to make a "reasonable effort" to remove voters who have either died or changed residences from their voter rolls. The voters are removed if they fail to respond to address confirmation notices, and do not vote in two consecutive federal general elections.

    The lawsuit targets Oregon Secretary of State LaVonne Griffin-Valade, and claims the state has the "highest known inactive registration rate of any state in the nation," according to a Judicial Watch news release. The lawsuit alleges that 29 of the state's 36 counties have removed few or no voter registrations, and that the state has registration rates exceeding 100%.

    “Dirty voter rolls can mean dirty elections,” Judicial Watch President Tom Fitton said in a statement. “Oregon has among the dirtiest voting rolls in America and needs to clean them up ASAP!”

    Judicial Watch has led other efforts to clean up voter rolls in New York, California, Pennsylvania, Colorado, North Carolina, Kentucky and Ohio. Altogether the efforts have resulted in the purging of up to four million ineligible voters, the group said.
