Pleasantly surprised that Reuters just reported on a well reasoned Opinion in my successful appeal in the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit Court, in which Easley Appellate Practice represented a California successor-in-interest to health care providers suing Cigna health plan for unpaid benefits:

The successor of a bankrupt mental-health and substance-abuse treatment provider can sue Cigna for $8.6 million in unpaid benefits but can’t seek damages for fraud, a federal appeals court held in a pair of opinions on Friday.
