How can you call this a victory for the plantif if you don't know the settlement? And I still think your a jackass!

By the way if the plantif loses then his lawyer does not get paid. Maybe that is why the lawyer convinced his client to settle?

It's not up to SBI to settle or not. It is up to the INS CO.

How can you make cast a blanket statements like this? My best friend is an attorney, he charges me ZILCH no matter what he does for me but I take care of him regardless.
I'm at a loss how one individual can know w/ confidence attorney client privilege information that pertains to hourly rates, fees, commissions or other.

Name calling while we hide behind our keyboards is nothing short of lame.

As I've stated elsewhere I'm all about a spirited debate and or difference of opinion but unless one is able to contribute based on fact or personal experience related to the topic of discussion or specific circumstance at the end of the day we are basically limited to offering what amounts to our PERSONAL opinion. We are all entitled to our own but a little more respect for one another would go a long way not to mention supports the forum environment in a much more positive way.

My advice would be to agree to disagree & walkaway when it gets to that point!

Sounds like a question for SBI only they can know what they mean & or is implied.
Does SBI cover the rules A-Z at every drivers meeting or just the highlights specific to that weekends event?

key word in both of our posts "If"

I'll take Nascat's advice and agree to disagree, there is too many things on my list to get the boat ready for spring to waste time arguing over semantics. in the end its a Lose Lose for all parties.
