In Rudi v. State Farm Fire & Cas. Co., State Farm has issued flood dwelling insurance that was federally underwritten, in a Standard Flood Insurance Policy administered by it pursuant to the National Flood Insurance Program (“NFIP”). Allstate argued that the insureds’ statutory bad faith claim was foreclosed because federal law preempts state law extra-contractual claims related to NFIP policies. The insureds did not oppose Allstate’s summary judgment motion on this point.
