Insured may not maintain action against reinsurer
A pro se plaintiff had insurance with Chubb Insurance Group, which was reinsured by GE Employers Reinsurance. After her RICO action against Chubb was dismissed, she filed a RICO action against GE. The District Court dismissed the action, based in part on the general rule that an insured can not maintain an action directly against a reinsurer. Kuhn v. Kehrwald, Case No. 05-1228 (E.D. Wis. Aug. 4, 2006). The opinion describes the Plaintiff's submissions as “incoherent and filled with invective ….” Although she alleged that her business suffered a “mysterious loss of funds,” she was convicted of stealing money from the business and its clients.
