FDOV, LLC v. ANTONIO EADDY et al

Automated case summary

What the court decided

The legal issue was whether an insurer breached its duty to make a good faith settlement offer under OCGA § 33-4-7 when it offered a reduced amount contingent on FDOV executing a release with specific terms. The Georgia Court of Appeals affirmed the trial court's summary judgment, holding that because the insurer offered a settlement within sixty days of FDOV's demand, no breach of duty occurred.
