2015(Footnotes omitted.) After pointing out that the Ninth Circuit followed the Davis rule (as stated in United States v. Rutgard, 116 F.3d 1270, 1291-92 (9th Cir.1997), which held that money from a commingled account is presumed to be clean) and noting that the Fourth and Third Circuits employ a presumption contrary to that which it applied in Davis , the Fifth Circuit in Loe, 248 F.3d at 467 , reversed the money laundering convictions: In this case, counts 22-24 were based on transactions originating in a $776,742 transfer from an account containing $2,205,000 paid by Lexington to the Loes.

2006The criteria applicable to our review of the denial of Davis's motion for JNOV was set forth by the Louisiana Supreme Court in Peterson v. Gibraltar Sav. and Loan, 98-1601, pp. 5-6 (La. 1999), 733 So.2d 1198 , 1203: JNOV is warranted only when the facts and inferences, viewed in the light most favorable to the party opposing the motion, is so strongly and overwhelmingly in favor of the moving party that reasonable men could not arrive at a contrary verdict; the motion should be granted only when evidence points so strongly in favor of the moving party that reasonable men could not reach differ

1999While we question the diligence of the PCF in notifying Davis's attorney that his claim had not been filed in accordance with the newly amended statute (Davis's claim was sent to the PCF on September 26th and undoubtedly received by them before September 30th), we do not reach the issue of their bad faith in handling Davis's claim based upon our conclusion that the statute as amended is inapplicable to the instant case. [2] See also Semien v. Pinac, 98-1350 (La.App. 3d Cir.07/07/99), ___ So.2d ___, 1999 WL 455359 , in which the Third Circuit found that the amendment changing the location for f

1978We pointed out in Younger v. Lumbermens Mutual Casualty Company, supra, that the liability of an insurer for refusing to accept an offer of settlement is not predicated upon its failure to predict the correct outcome of the action it is defending, but rather whether it unreasonably exposes its insured to a judgment in excess of the policy limits, and whether the proposed settlements are rejected conscientiously in terms of deliberate judgment evaluation rather than for inadequate or no reason.
