We regret the error and apologize to GEICO and its policyholders.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Plaintiffs allege that they each purchased an insurance policy that required payment of taxes and\/or certain fees in event of a total loss of their vehicle. Plaintiffs claim that GEICO breached the policy by failing to pay sales tax in certain circumstances and\/or registration fees to insureds whose vehicles were determined to be total losses.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cPlaintiffs\u2019 position is that GEICO\u2019s policies require it to pay costs associated with replacing a vehicle that is a total loss. This includes, for example, tax on all vehicles and registration fees. Plaintiffs seek to hold GEICO responsible for paying those costs,\u201d said Plaintiff\u2019s counsel, Richard Daly of Daly &amp; Black, P.C.<\/p>\n<p>On October 28th, 2021 Judge Keith P. Ellison heard arguments and on November 3, 2021, approved the motion to certify the class against GEICO although an order has not yet been issued. Policyholders who qualify will be provided Notice that the Class was certified, along with the claims and defenses at issue, and be informed of their right to opt out of the Class.<\/p>\n<p>The case styling is Civil Action 4:20-cv-00799, <em>Philip Angel et al. v.
