MEMORANDUM AND ORDER
HUYETT, District Judge.
In its third motion in limine, defendant Continental Assurance Company moves the Court to bar Plaintiff from pursuing any claim for special damages under 42 Pa.C.S.A. § 8371. Defendant argues that Plaintiff is barred from seeking damages under Section 8371 because Defendant’s denial of Plaintiff’s claim occurred on March 30,1989, well before the statute’s enabling date of July 1, 1990. 1 Plaintiff opposes Defendant’s motion arguing that Defendant engaged in at least two additional acts of bad faith after July 1, 1990.
