McCracken v. Progressive Direct Ins. Co., No. 17-1285 (10th Cir. 2018)
Annotate this CaseThe plaintiffs in consolidated appeals each settled a claim under their automobile-insurance policies with the defendants. But plaintiffs maintained the defendants illegally reduced their settlement offers by taking into account certain benefits they had previously paid plaintiffs. The district courts dismissed the plaintiffs’ putative class-action lawsuits after concluding the plaintiffs each waived their rights to collect further damages from the defendants on their settled claims. The Tenth Circuit reversed in part and remanded to the district court with instructions to vacate its judgment in favor of USAA Casualty Insurance Company because it lacked jurisdiction to hear the claims against that defendant. Otherwise, the Court affirmed.
