Plaintiff Buhl Building, LLC (“Buhl”) brings this action against Defendants Commonwealth Land Title Insurance Company (“Commonwealth”) and Fidelity National Financial, Inc. (“FNF”) (collectively, the “Defendants”). Buhl purchased a title insurance policy (the “Contract”) from Commonwealth. FNF is Commonwealth’s parent corporation. The Court has reviewed the Contract and notes that FNF is not a signatory to that agreement. Buhl initiated this civil action by filing a complaint (the “Complaint”). In the Complaint, Buhl alleges that Commonwealth and FNF, working together, failed to provide clean title to a potential buyer of the Buhl’s building and failed to indemnify Buhl. As a result, Buhl contends that Commonwealth and FNF (i) breached the Contract,1 and (ii) acted in bad faith.
