Description
William R. Nodell and Shirley E. Nodell (the Nodells), as guardians of Scott Nodell and as assignees of coplaintiffs Dean Chaussee, Carol Chaussee, and Bellewood Corporation (hereinafter collectively referred to as Chaussee), appeal a judgment notwithstanding the verdict (judgment n.o.v.) resulting in the dismissal of their claims for failure to settle an insurance claim within policy limits and for bad faith. The claims are against the respondents Maryland Casualty Company (Maryland), Chaussee's insurer; Reed, McClure, Moceri & Thonn, P.S. (Reed McClure), the law firm Maryland retained to represent Chaussee; and McDonald & McGarry Company (McDonald), Chaussee's insurance agent and broker. Maryland cross-appeals arguing that the trial court erred in denying its motion for a directed verdict because the Nodells did not prove coverage. We affirm the judgment n.o.v., and thus do not reach the issue raised by Maryland's cross appeal.*fn1
