(July 12, 2019, 2:28 PM EDT) -- ANNAPOLIS, Md. — A Maryland appeals panel on July 9 affirmed the Maryland Insurance Administration (MIA)’s finding that appellants failed to prove by a preponderance of evidence that an insurer engaged in unfair settlement practices based on the insurer’s “careful consideration (and reconsideration) of the claim and explanation of its denial,” as well as the MIA's concluding that the insurer’s position is "sound and supported by the evidence” (Samuel J. McCollum, et ux. v. Maryland Insurance Administration, et al., No. 290, September Term, 2018, Md. App., 2019 Md. App. LEXIS 567)....
