   U.S. Court of Appeals Case No:  21-2956
   U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Missouri - St. Louis   
   [PUBLISHED] [Kelly, Author, with Smith, Chief Judge, and Grasz, Circuit 
   Judge] 
   Civil case - Insurance. The insurer's action in obtaining reimbursement 
   from the tortfeasor's insurers before plaintiff, its insured, had 
   recovered anything from them was not unlawful conduct under Missouri's 
   subrogation statute and Missouri case law; plaintiff's insurer did not 
   breach the policy when it sought reimbursement from the tortfeasors in a 
   manner contrary to the subrogation statute rights granted in the policy 
   because plaintiff could not show that he suffered any damages as a result 
   of the insurer's failure to abide by the contracted-for procedures; nor 
   did the insurer's action violate its duty of good faith and fair dealing.
