Is There a Legal Difference Between "Bad Faith" and a Lack of Good Faith in Insurance Contracts? : Property Insurance Coverage Law Blog

Is There a Legal Difference Between "Bad Faith" and a Lack of Good Faith in Insurance Contracts? : Property Insurance Coverage Law Blog: "Merlin Law Group has been very involved with this case because of the enormous impact its decision will have on policyholders. Chip Merlin and Mary Fortson submitted an amicus brief to the Florida Supreme Court on the issue, and Chip has previously argued that a lack of “good faith” should be treated the same as “bad faith”. But what about the current state of Florida law regarding the implied warranty of good faith and fair dealing? Is it the same thing as “bad faith,” either under the common law or as a claim for violation of Fla. Stat. � 624.155?"

Last week, Shaun Marker brought up the case of Chalfonte Condo. Apartment Assoc., Inc. v. QBE Insurance Corp., 561 F.3d 1267 (11th Cir. 2009), in his post titled Enforceability of Large Hurricane Deductibles in Florida. As indicated by the title, Shaun’s post focused on the issue of enforceability of hurricane deductibles, which was only one of the issues appealed in Chalfonte. This week, I would like to continue Shaun’s exploration of Chalfonte, but turn your attention to another issue in that case: the implied warranty of good faith and fair dealing."
