Hi Richard,

Should the Citys concern about the possibility of a City Official being connected with what appears to be insurance fraudwith Hybrid be direct to the Chief States Attorney now since you indicated the ID would not be addressing thatissue. However, if it is proven a City Official was involved in what appears to be insurance fraud, how does the IDaddress that issue? Any guidance would be appreciated.

Many thanks!

Mr. Griffin:

The Department would determine if violations of insurance law under the Commissioners

jurisdiction have been violated, and take appropriate action. Whether that includes a referral to

another state agency, at this point I cannot say.

company.Any payment made by or on behalf of an insured to any producer for policies ofinsurance which have been issued to such producer for delivery to the insured or issued directly

to the insured on the order of such producer shall, in controversies between the insured and the

company, be deemed to have been paid to the company.
