Jonathan Meer (Of Counsel-New York) authored an article entitled
"Insurer's Claim File in the Crossfire of Discovery"
in the October 24, 2016, Insurance Law section of the New York
Law Journal. Jonathan discusses the fact that insurer
representatives are receiving more requests for discovery on their
claim files, whether in a direct coverage action or via subpoena in
connection with a claim against their insured. While CPLR
§3101(a) provides for full disclosure of all matters material
and necessary in the prosecution or defense of an action, including
from non-parties, unlimited disclosure is not permitted.
