In his recent decision in the property loss bad faith
case of
Turner v. State Farm Fire &
Cas. Co., No. 3:15-CV-906, 2017 U.S. Dist. LEXIS 81922 (M.D. Pa. May 30,
2017 Conaboy, J.), Judge Richard P. Conaboy provides an excellent summary of
the current status of bad faith law and reviews the validity of bringing a bad
faith claim where the insured's own conduct allegedly led to the delays at
issue.
