A new bill introduced in Arizona would move bad faith actions against insurers for denying Workers Comp claims from the courts (and thus away from juries) to the state's Industrial Commission.
Not sure how good or bad this idea might be. Anything that makes it more difficult for injured workers to get justice would be bad, but there are also a lot of fraudulent or exaggerated claims in the Workers Comp world. Comments from readers always welcomed.
