What happens if a Georgia carrier refuses to pay a covered BOP claim?
Quick answer:
Under Georgia's bad-faith statute (O.C.G.A. 33-4-6), you can make a written demand. If the carrier fails to pay within 60 days and a court later finds the refusal was in bad faith, it owes a penalty of up to 50 percent of the loss or 5,000 dollars, whichever is greater, plus reasonable attorney's fees.
