Simpson v. Infinity Select Insurance

Barnes, Judge.

Gregory Wade Simpson sued his stepfather’s insurance carrier, Infinity Select Insurance Company, for bad faith in failing to defend him against a suit involving a car accident, as well as bad faith failure to settle within the $15,000 policy limits. Infinity denied liability, contending that Simpson was not insured under the policy. The trial court granted summary judgment to Infinity and denied partial summary judgment to Simpson. Simpson appeals, arguing that the contract was ambiguous and should be construed in his favor. For the reasons that follow, we affirm the trial court.
