ACCC Pop-Up Dialogue: The Forthcoming Torts Restatement’s Treatment of First Party Bad Faith

In 2018, the American Law Institute gave final approval to the Restatement of Law, Liability Insurance following years of controversy in which dozens of ACCC Fellows were actively involved. Now the ALI is on the verge of approving a new Restatement of Torts (3d) which will contain a single section that comprehensively addresses the tort of first party bad faith. Although unlikely to spark the furor that attended liability Restatement, Section 20 A is likely to have an important impact on the future shape of first party bad faith. Joining us to discuss the origins and scope of Section 20 A is the Restatement’s Reporter, Professor Michael Green of the Washington University of Law in St. Louis, accompanied by Lorie Masters, who provided helpful input to Professor Green on this project and will respectively provide the insurer-side and policyholder-side perspective on it.

Speakers:
Professor Michael D. Green, Washington University School of Law
Lorelie Masters, Hunton Andrews Kurth LLP
Michael AylwardMorrison Mahoney LLP
