Courthouse News has removed from its website a July 16, 2014, article that reported on a class action over car insurance policies in Cook County, Ill.
Though the complaint by Norbert May named the defendant as Direct General Insurance Agency of Tennessee dba Direct Auto Insurance, the Direct General Group of Cos., based in Nashville, Tenn., has since clarified that "the correct defendant should have been Direct Auto Insurance Company, 330 S. Wells Street, Suite 910, Chicago, Illinois, 60606."
"Direct Auto Insurance Company is not and has never been affiliated with Direct General Insurance Agency of Tennessee, Inc., d/b/a Direct Auto Insurance or any other member of the Direct General Group of Companies," the statement continues (emphasis in original).
