Moon v. Mercury Ins. Co. of Georgia

Barnes, Judge.

Cynthia Ann Moon sued Mercury Insurance Company of Georgia for unpaid medical expenses resulting from an automobile collision in which she was a passenger, seeking special damages, bad faith penalties, attorney fees, and punitive damages. Mercury denied these expenses were covered under the auto insurance policy of Moon’s father, contending that Moon had released her claim, that she was not a resident in her father’s house, that she had no standing because she had assigned these benefits to a chiropractor, and that it was not liable for penalties.

The trial court granted summary…
