A federal judge has denied an insurance company's motion to throw out a lawsuit filed by four Missouri businesses saying the insurer wrongly denied their coronavirus-related claims.
A law professor in Pennsylvania says the ruling Wednesday by U.S. Judge Stephen Bough in Missouri could be a boon for hundreds of businesses nationwide. Three Kansas City restaurants and a company that operate hair salons in Springfield sued Cincinnati Insurance Company after it denied their claims.
Bough said the businesses' claims were plausible enough to continue the lawsuit.
