- holding that a breach of contract claim could not be sustained against the broker who sold, but was not a party, to the insurance policy alleged to have been breached
- an agent of a disclosed principal is not a party to his principal's contract and cannot be liable for its breach
- “it is clear that an agent, as a non-party to the contract, has no implied duty of good-faith and fair-dealing with regard to the performance of the contract and thus, cannot be liable under a bad-faith theory of recovery.”
