California insurers warned over 75 percent loss pay plan
San Francisco June 14 California officials say insurers that refuse full loss payments will be driven from the state and perhaps banned nationwide through coordinated action. Insurance Commissioner E Myron Wolfe and Attorney General Webb promise to revoke licenses and publicize dishonesty. Stateside, the 25 percent plan retains support but faces shifts as offices await home-office guidance and proofs of loss deadlines are extended to August 15 18. The state keeps monitoring filings and will press lists when needed.
