A fraud case alleging that a Maryland chiropractic practice submitted hundreds of false insurance claims to State Farm over the court of more than a decade has been cleared to proceed by a federal judge.

U.S. District Judge Catherine C. Blake of the District of Maryland denied Carefree Land Chiropractic’s motion for summary judgment against State Farm’s claims that the practice provided “protocol treatment” to its patients by documenting the same ailments, treatment plans and results for patients from 2006 to 2016.
