`
`UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

`
`
`GEICO’S MOTION TO DISMISS PLAINTIFF’S FIRST AMENDED COMPLAINT
`
`Defendants GEICO Casualty Company, GEICO Indemnity Company and GEICO General

`
`various reasons, including: (a) GEICO breached no term of its contract; (b) GEICO made no false
`
`or deceptive statement; (c) GEICO violated no statute or regulation; (d) Plaintiff did not allege
`
`materiality or damage; and (e) GEICO Indemnity and GEICO General are not alleged to be in
`
`privity.
