CIVIL ACTION NO. 5:21-CV-02103-BLF (N.D. CAL.)
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR
THE NORTHERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA
If you are a California resident who purchased personal automobile, motorcycle, or RV insurance from GEICO covering any portion of the time period from March 19, 2020 to June 11, 2021, you are a member of the Class.
The purpose of this website is to provide Notice that you may be a Class member in a lawsuit pending in the United States District Court for the Northern District of California against GEICO Casualty Company, GEICO Indemnity
Company, and GEICO General Insurance Company (collectively, “GEICO” or “Defendants”). Plaintiff Jessica Day (“Plaintiff”) brought this lawsuit against GEICO seeking to recover excess insurance
premiums paid as a result of the reduction in driving during the COVID-19 pandemic. The case is captioned Jessica Day, individually
and on behalf of all others similarly situated, v. GEICO Casualty Company, GEICO Indemnity Company, and GEICO General Insurance Company,
Civil Action No. 5:21-cv-02103-BLF (N.D. Cal.) (the “Lawsuit”).
Please note that this Lawsuit is current under appeal after the Court filed an Order Granting Renewed Motion for Summary Judgment. When additional information becomes available, it will be posted on this website.
- This Lawsuit is a class action, meaning that the Plaintiff and Class Representative—Jessica Day—brought this Lawsuit as an individual acting on behalf of a putative class of GEICO policyholders.
- The Class Representative alleged claims for breach of contract, unjust enrichment, and violation of California’s Unfair Competition Law (“UCL”). GEICO denied any wrongdoing. The Court dismissed the breach of contract and unjust enrichment claims but certified the UCL claim as a class action.
- The Class that was certified is defined as “All California residents who purchased personal automobile, motorcycle, or RV insurance from GEICO covering any portion of the time period from March 19, 2020 to June 11, 2021” (the “Class”).
- However, just because you are a Class member, does not mean you are forced to be bound to the outcome of this Lawsuit. You can choose to “opt out” of the Class.
- Class members do not need to take any action at this time. You will be informed in future notices of any final orders from the Court or any settlement of the Lawsuit.
Please note that this Lawsuit is current under appeal after the Court filed an Order Granting Renewed Motion for Summary Judgment. When additional information becomes available, it will be posted on this website.
