Judge orders State Farm to resume paying for care for quadriplegic car crash survivor

A Washtenaw County Circuit Court judge has ordered State Farm to resume paying for the care of Stephen Gedda, who was severely injured in a car crash in 2011, and to compensate his caregivers retroactively for the months the insurer did not pay.

State Farm stopped paying for Gedda’s care in September, according to his attorney Steve Hulst.

Judge Archie Brown said Michigan’s 2019 auto insurance no fault law is unconstitutional. It allows insurance companies to cut payments for care for injured people by nearly half of what they were paying in 2019.
