Montana Supreme Court February 9, 1983, 82-219 (Harris v. AMERICAN GEN. LIFE INS. CO. OF DEL.)

*403MR. JUSTICE MORRISON

specially concurring:

I concur in the result but dissent from that portion of the opinion which relies upon a violation of the insurance code as the basis for an award of punitive damages.

The jury in this case was permitted to award punitive damages by making a finding that defendant insurance company failed to negotiate in good faith.
