J. Barbier grants summary judgment to State Farm, dismissing a homeowner’s charges that the insurance giant acted in “bad faith” when it denied coverage, arising from storm damage by Hurricane Ida in 2021. The evidence demonstrates that State Farm had a “reasonable basis” to question whether the cause of the damage was covered under the homeowner's policy, which did not cover flood or mold losses. Therefore, State Farm did not act arbitrarily or capriciously in denying her insurance claim.

J. Laplante denies a couple’s claim that, following the wife suffering injuries from slipping and falling at a bar, its insurance provider is required to pay the almost $400,000 judgment against the bar to plaintiffs.
