United States Court of Appeals, Seventh Circuit.

Decided May 16, 1984.

As Amended May 16, 1984.

Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Howard A. Davis, Habush, Habush & Davis, S.C., Milwaukee, Wis., for plaintiff-appellant.

Jack R. Wiedabach, Prosser, Wiedabach & Quale, S.C., Milwaukee, Wis., for defendant-appellee.

Before CUMMINGS, Chief Judge, and WOOD and POSNER, Circuit Judges.

CUMMINGS, Chief Judge.

The appeal in this diversity case presents the question whether Wisconsin law recognizes a cause of action by the insured against the insurer for alleged bad faith in handling a third party claim where the insurer settled the claim within the insured's policy coverage. We affirm the district court's holding that Wisconsin law does not recognize such a bad faith cause of action.
