State Farm Fire & Casualty Co. is seeking to disqualify several former members of the Scruggs Katrina Group – a legal team led by embattled attorney Richard “Dickie” Scruggs – from representing a couple suing the insurer over Hurricane Katrina damage.
In court papers filed Thursday, State Farm accuses lawyers from the newly formed Katrina Litigation Group of “numerous egregious ethical violations” that warrant their removal from the case filed on behalf of policyholders Thomas and Pamela McIntosh.
State Farm is asking a federal judge to disqualify lawyers from the Barrett Law Office, Nutt & McAllister, the Lovelace Law Firm and the Mike Moore Law Firm from representing the McIntoshes.
