Get out your best seersucker suit! The Rigsby sisters are taking on State Farm…in a courtroom…more than seven years after Hurricane Katrina!
Having covered the courts for a daily New Jersey newspaper before I got myself into the depths of insurance-news reporting, there has been no greater opportunity for me to geek-out on court documents than Rigsby v. State Farm Fire and Casualty Co.—a whistleblower lawsuit filed in Mississippi in April 2006.
The case is finally scheduled for trial March 25 after years of pre-trial motions to dismiss the case, limit its scope, and disqualify potential witnesses. Not to mention the downfall of the Rigsbys' prominent plaintiffs' attorney and the death of Senior District Judge L.T. Senter, whose rulings were always a good read.
