Surprised that a coronavirus lawsuit took so long to materialize.
It did not, if you have been following this thread I posted one involving Noah "Thor" Syndegaard of the NY Mets around a week ago and there have been others. However, this is the first one I have read about in which a lawsuit alleged unsafe working conditions due to Coronavirus.
The amount of litigation that could potentially be spawned by Covid-19 is infinite. The Courts have already taken some measures to limit the ability of landlords to perfect evictions, and of banks to perfect foreclosures. All foreclosure sales in Connecticut were stayed until late July. There could be a bonanza of loss-shifting litigation related to Covid-19, and possibly legislation to limit it. I have already directly been advising clients on eviction issues and on foreclosure issues in light of Covid.
I am not sure if other States are doing it, but Connecticut forced insurance companies to issue rebates for premiums paid in March, April and May on auto and homeowner's insurance due to residents not going outside and using their vehicles. I just got my 20% rebate check in the mail yesterday on my home and auto insurance. If you guys did not get rebates you should request them. The risk is down when people do not go outside, use their yards and drive, and insurance companies should not be getting fat on your backs.
