The district court granted Clarendon’s motion for summary judgment and subsequently entered judgment in favor of Clarendon. The court concluded that no reasonable juror could conclude that Clarendon acted in bad faith because Clarendon was diligent in its efforts to settle the claims against its insured and there exists no causal connection between the actions of Clarendon and the entry of the excess judgment against its insured. Accordingly, the court affirmed the judgment.
