MultiRegion, United States of America

The following excerpt is from Shirley v. Allstate Ins. Co., Case No.: 18CV994 AJB (BGS) (S.D. Cal. 2019):

Plaintiffs' assertion of relevancy is based on its claim for breach of the covenant of good faith and fair dealing and punitive damages. In order to establish a breach of the implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing under California law, a plaintiff must show: (1) benefits due under the polity were withheld; and (2) the reason for withholding benefits was unreasonable or without proper cause." Guebara v. Allstate Ins. Co., 237
