Guest guest Posted December 20, 2002 Report Share Posted December 20, 2002 When a major corporation brags about how the corporation was not implicated in fraud, and overlooks the implications of this company acting in bad faith, it is a sign that they were smart enough to get away today, and avoided the painful fines and penalties the state insurance commision, and state of TEXAS was going to have to impose for the judgement. It sounds like " We were not found to be crooks so I can continue to practice my trade, but hey it was a complicated case and we tried to act in good faith. " " It was the issue of money that slowed the process down. " The appeals court tries to remove and send back as much of a case to the lower courts and often sends all of it back, or removes everything the jury finds. The Texas Supreme Court would spend more time as setting the precedent for future mold related cases, than the court of appeals. Having the insurance company fund the Ballard cause, and put money into the opposing counsel's fund is a major Victory. Farmers has spent alot of money fighting this case and " LOST " . Some one get with the misinformed Farmers representative that claimed MS Ballard committed fraud and tell him his company is supposed to do a little more than " Try to act in good faith, unless its a little more profitable than not " .
