After finding that an insurer’s engineer “secretly rewrote” an early report saying a house had not been damaged by Hurricane Sandy, a magistrate judge has sanctioned the insurer and ordered all defense counsel in any Sandy-related case to provide plaintiffs with all draft, redline and mark-up reports.
Eastern District Magistrate Judge Gary Brown (See Profile) said the case against Wright National Flood Insurance Co. “exposed reprehensible gamesmanship by a professional engineering company that unjustly frustrated efforts by two homeowners to get fair consideration of their claims.”
