Case Details

Kansas Court of Appeals reversed a trial court's judgment that found an insurance carrier liable for bad faith failure to offer policy limits in a wrongful death case. The appellate court found insufficient evidence of bad faith causing the excess verdict.

Additional Notes

The underlying claims were resolved by a bench trial resulting in a $3.3 million judgment against Wilson. A subsequent bench trial found the carrier liable for the entire underlying judgment due to bad faith, which was later reversed on appeal.
