Over 10,000 of the unsolicited facsimile advertisements were sent to Missouri businesses and consumers. After filing the initial class action suit on behalf of those businesses and consumers alleging violations of the Telephone Consumer Protection Act (TCPA), defendant's insurance company, QBE Insurance Company, denied coverage and failed to defend or indemnify defendant in the class action lawsuit. A second lawsuit was filed seeking a declaration QBE owed a duty to defend and indemnify their insured.
