Maybe this suit will cause further investigation into State Farm such as their perjury to the IRS allowing them (State Farm)to avoid state and federal payroll taxes on approximately $3 Billion of annual payroll. It may also make State Farm disclose to its own agents they (the State Farm Companies) have been found to have breached the agents contract (Case #C050591 Calif. Appellate Court, Third Disrtict). This opinion on the breach of contract was final approximately April 2007 but State Farm has yet to notify its agents of this breach.
And the point of this is?? Any large company has made mistakes. You assign a sinister motive to a loss in court. That they lost of course means a vast conspiracy to cheat everybody. Well, as gill brought up, their satisfaction rate is extremely high, probably much higher than the satisfaction rate your customers or bosses have with you. Many times I agree with you, but you need to lighten up on the State Farm attacks. It just makes you look like as big a loon as Rosie or Melanie. Find a company that hasn’t been sued and lost on occasion and let me know about it.
Oh, by the way, I’m not a State Farm apologist. I couldn’t care less about them. I just tire of the incessant attacks some of the posters on this site seem to feel are justified. Shrill and whiney constantly.
Perhaps one of the attorneys reading this article can help me. I thought RICO was a criminal law approach to nab ‘bad guys’. If that is so, how can D. Scruggs use this approach? Shouldn’t a States Attorney or DA etc be the one filing suit?
If you call this mistakes then you must think that OJ carved up Nicole & Ronald Goldman by accident.
Give me a break.
Fraud is Fraud. No sugar coating allowed.
It’s like sying I am just a little bit pregnant.
As far as State Farm having a high satisfaction rate…. lol
This is the block of business that never had to MAKE A CLAIM.
Show Me The Satisfaction Rates for the People Who Had To File A Claim.
Selling a Hurricane Policy without Hurricane Protection is not a mistake.
Blaming Water for Katrina was not a mistake.
Denying claims for Katrina was not a mistake.
Turning their back on their Clients when they were left homeless…not a mistake.
Living Expenses defined as ACTUAL LOSS SUSTAINED? What does that mean?
Still no straignt answer and this is not a mistake.
Trying to block the investigation…
not a mistake.
Telling Agents to shred out dated documents…not a mistake.
Any Company that tries to defraud Americans should be nailed to the wall.
No Deals!
Don’t want anyone to go to jail, I would just like to see some Honor in mankind.
The Industry makes enough money to be good to their clients.
This is about power & greed of money.
Shame on anyone that tries to cover this up.
We are working people. Decent and our blood is all red. Help each other and stop trying to get over on your neighbor.
I just cannot understand why the apologists continue to fail to acknowledge that State Farm has been found guilty and everything they do from the point of the 1st judgement against them is an acknowledgement of their widepread guilt. Re-opening 35,000 claims tells me that they have only legitimately settled only 35-40% of their claims, and 0% of claims within 1 mile of the coast, contrary to their own figures of 99%. Their lies show on them. And being a career adjuster, their approach was not legitimate from the start and they knew it.
The Mob was rubbed out by Politicians.
Now called Political Rings.
It’s not organized crime anymore,
it’s called corruption.
RICO is now Legislative Meetings.
Sometimes they call in a special session.
All the corrupt officials gather together.
Need a favor…Consider it done.
Contribute to campaigns makes you one of the gang.
Duh, The Insurance Industry throws
money around and that is why there are
no State Regulations preventing them from
Screwing the American People.
The only Regulations that we have is
Regulations that Protect the Finances
Of the Industry.
Know too much or Cross the line and
You end up on a milk carton.
Too bad for Jimmy Hoffa, back in his day
the milk came in clear, glass jugs and not
A paper carton.

I competed against State Farm for many years and have no love for that company. However they sure are more principled than The Scruggs Katrina Group.
But they are guilty until prove innocent silly person. They are an insurance company and are inherently evil. Right, Melanie?

The RICO statutes are used both civilly and criminally. Obviously Scruggs can only bring civil claims.
