Street, Apartment 2, Carlisle, Cumberland County, Pennsylvania 17013.
2. Defendant Amy Bassney is an adult individual residing at 69 Fairview Street,
Carlisle, Cumberland County, Pennsylvania 17013.
3. Defendant Allstate Insurance is a business entity engaged in the issuance of policies
of insurance including auto property insurance with a local office at 6345 Flank Drive, Suite 1000,
Harrisburg, Dauphin County, Pennsylvania.
4. This matter arises from a motor vehicle accident that occurred on June 3, 1999, and
actions subsequent thereto regarding the handling of a property damage claim by Defendant Allstate
Insurance.
5. On the aforesaid date, Brian Maschmeyer was the owner of a 1992 Volkswagen
Jetta.
;".i,'
6. Defendant Amy Bassney was the owner of a 1991 Toyota Celka.
7. This motor vehicle accident occurred at the intersection of Fairview Street and York
Road in South Middleton Township, Cumberland County, on Tune, 1999, at approximately 4:45
p.m.
8. Defendant Bassney pulled out from a stop sign into the path of the vehicle operated
by Brian Maschmeyer resulting in a collision of the vehicles.
9. This accident arose solely as a result of a negligence of Defendant Bassney in that
she:
(a) failed to observe other vehicles on the roadway;
(b) pulled out from a stop sign into the path of the vehicle operated by Plaintiff,
who had the right of way at the intersection;
(c) failed to obey the laws of the Commonwealth regarding intersections
controlled by stop signs; and
(d) operated her vehicle in a manner so as to cause a collision with the vehicle
operated by PlaintiffMaschmeyer.
10. Solely as a result of the negligence ofPlaintiffBassney, the Maschmeyer vehicle was
declared a total loss, having a value of Five Thousand Three Hundred Eleven Dollars and Fifty
Cents ($5,311.50). In an addition a rental vehicle was required for Fifteen days resulting in the
expense of Three Hundred Five Dollars and Seven Cents ($305.07).

Brian Maschmeyer v. Allstate Insurance
11. The averments of Paragraph 1 to 10 are incorporated herein by reference.
12. At the time of the aforesaid accident, Amy Bassney was insured with Defendant
Allstate Insurance Company.
13. Immediately following the accident, Lauren Davis, a claims representative of Allstate
acknowledged the claim ofPlaintiffMaschmeyer and agreed that Allstate would be responsible for
the property damage caused by Ms. Bassney.
14. Acting in reliance on the Allstate representation, damage documentation including
the total loss paperwork and rental vehicle proof for the Maschmeyer vehicle was gathered and
forwarded to Allstate. Allstate did not advise Mascbmeyer of another pending claim or that their
policy for Bassney had a Five Thousand Dollar ($5,000) limit.
15. When the proof of the damages incurred by Mr. Maschmeyer was presented to
Defendant Allstate, Maschmeyer was advised that Allstate had already disbursed over ninety percent
(90%) of the property damage policy limit to another claimant and failed to reserve the funds
appropriate to pay the claim of Defendant Maschmeyer.
16. Defendant Allstate asserlll that their property damage policy limit was Five Thousand
Dollars ($5,000).
17. Utilizing a proration of the claims presented from the accident, 55.44% of the policy
property damage limit should have been reserved and set aside for the claim of Brian Maschmeyer,
.", ~- ,,,' ',~~ ""'~'-'-",.'~__'~ ~',.'_t_'" 'j'~,,,> ~
which amounts to Two Thousand Seven Hundred Twenty-seven Dollars and Fifty Cents
($2,727.50).
18. Allstate negligently processed the claims arising from this accident and failed to
reserve the policy proceeds to pay the claim ofPlaintiffMaschmeyer as they had orally committed
to, and now require Defendant Maschmeyer to pursue a claim against Ms. Bassney whose insurance
coverage has been nearly exhausted.
19. Allstate's negligence consisted of:
a. Misrepresentation of the manner in which the claim would be processed
which was relied upon to his detriment by PlaintiffMaschmeyer; and
b. Failing to set aside funds to pay the Maschmeyer claim;
c. Misrepresenting the amount of property damage coverage available to resolve
the claim which was relied upon to his detriment by Plaintiff Maschmeyer;
and
d. Violated the standards of the Unfair Insurance Practice Act including:
1. 40 P.S. $ 1171.5(a) 3:
Misrepresenting the financial condition (amount of insurance
coverage) of their insured.
2. 40 P.S. ~ 1175(a) 10:
(i) misrepresenting pertinent facts as to the coverage at issue:
(ii) failing to act promptly with respect to communication about
the Maschmeyer claim;
J':

(vi) not attempting in good faith to effectuate prompt, fair and
equitable settlements where Allstate's liability was clear;
(vii) Compelling persons to commence litigation to recover
amounts due under an insurance policy; and
(viii) Attempting to resolve a claim for less than a reasonable man
would believe he is entitled to receive.
WHEREFORE, plaintiff demands judgment against Allstate Insurance in the amount of
Two Thousand Seven Hundred Twenty-seven and Fifty Cents ($2,727.50) together with interest
and cost of suit. This amount requites subruission of this claim to compulsory arbitration pursuant
to the local rules of coutt.

form a belief as to the truth of the averments of paragraph fourteen (14) and strict proof
of the same is demanded at trial.

the other claimant had no other coverage available to her. In order to protect Defendant
