Donate to the GOP II

They're getting screwed by their insurance company!!

The Republican Party of Virginia has sued Union Insurance Co. for $950,000 in Federal Court, claiming the insurer refused to fulfill its obligation to defend the GOP in a lawsuit settlement in which the Party acknowledged it had secretly listened to a conference call conducted by the Democratic Caucus of Virginia. The complaint states that although the Party and its operatives acknowledged five violations of federal wiretap law in that case, no criminal charges were filed, so Union has a duty to defend. Plaintiff seeks the $750,000 it paid to settle the lawsuit, plus $200,000 in attorneys’ fees.
