Don't worry, we've seen this before. Case dismissed because of lack of standing, due to the fact that there were no damages.

His rates doubling wouldn't be considered damages?

Yeah a case similar to this just got shot down in Washington state for that exact reason.

Double insurance rates don't qualify?

That’s not damage, it’s profit.

Is that really how the law sees it?
