Opinion
CURRY, J.
Appellants Phillip Seretti and Janja Vujovich contend on appeal that respondent Superior National Insurance Company, the workers’ compensation carrier for their wholly owned corporation, was liable to them individually for failing to defend actions brought as the result of injury to two of the corporation’s employees and for entering into a settlement with the employees which was adverse to the interests of the insured. We agree with the trial court that appellants lack standing to assert a claim against respondent for bad faith insurance practices, and affirm.
