Sentinel Can t Avoid Chiropractor s COVID-19 Coverage Suit
Law360 (March 15, 2021, 11:18 PM EDT) A New Jersey federal court on Monday refused to toss a chiropractic center s proposed class action against Sentinel Insurance Co. Ltd. over coverage for losses sustained during the COVID-19 pandemic, rejecting Sentinel s arguments that the center lacked standing to bring nationwide claims.
On Monday, U.S. District Judge Michael Vazquez sided with Back2Health Chiropractic Center LLC, denying the insurer s motion to dismiss and finding that the court need not be concerned with potential future members of a class that has not yet been certified. At this stage of the litigation, it must only be satisfied that it has personal jurisdiction over defendant.
