Judge dismisses lawsuit Erie Insurance filed against Maryland regulators over findings of discrimination

A federal judge threw out a lawsuit Monday in which Erie Insurance accused state regulators of acting illegally in determining that the insurer engaged in insurance “redlining” of predominantly Black neighborhoods in Baltimore. Judge Julie R. Rubin dismissed the case against the Maryland Insurance Administration, according to an order filed in U.S. District Court in Baltimore. The judge issued the order after holding a proceeding in open court Monday.
