Progressive Gets Car Value Class Cert. Overturned At 3rd Circ.
The Third Circuit on Monday reversed a lower court's decision to certify classes of Pennsylvania drivers who accuse Progressive Insurance units of breaching their contracts by systematically underestimating the actual cash value of their totaled cars, finding that the lower court misapplied the standard to determine whether common issues predominate.

3rd Circ. Unsure Progressive Can Undo Car Value Suit Cert.
A Third Circuit panel on Friday grappled with whether an adjustment that Progressive Specialty Insurance Co. did every time it calculated the value of a totaled vehicle was enough to warrant class certification for a lawsuit claiming the adjustment was unfair, or if classwide treatment was inappropriate when each class member could have a different outcome of that assessment.
