I received a letter from United Fire on Sept 21 notifying me as policy 
holder of class action lawsuit filed in St Bernard, Charles Dupree v 
Lafayette, CA No 105-21, 34 JDC Parish St Bernard, stating Lafayette 
and plaintiffs counsel, Murphy Rogers Sloss & Gambel and Carter & 
Willis law firms, have agreed to voluntary review process whereby 
insureds in St Bernard dissatisfied with claims may have their claims 
jointly reviewed by both.

There are seven items of dispute:
1. deductible was properly applied
2. multiple deductibles were properly applied
3. reasonable valuations for repair costs were used in estimating 
repair costs
4. wind damage adjustments were inaccurate of understated
5. claims were adjusted and timely paid
6. depreciation was properly deducted
7. additional living expenses were properly paid

To participate contact mediator office of John Perry, Baton Rouge, 225-
