June 2, 2022 Opinion or Order Filing 16 ORDER DENYING MOTION TO DISMISS EXTRA-CONTRACTUAL CLAIMS AND DISMISSING THOSE CLAIMS WITH PREJUDICE: Pending before the Court is the 12(b)(6) Motion for Dismissal of Extra- Contractual Allegations (doc. #5 ) filed by defendant State Farm Lloyds on April 29, 2022.
