Before RIPPLE and ROVNER, Circuit Judges, and FEINERMAN, District Judge.*fn1

On November 29, 2007, an explosion occurred at a metal processing plant in Man- chester, Georgia owned by G & S Metal Consultants, Inc. (“GSMC”). GSMC had obtained insurance through Conti- nental Casualty Co. (“Continental”) which covered damage to the plant caused by the explosion. Pursuant to that policy, Continental made some payments to GSMC, but GSMC subsequently filed suit against Continental alleging that the payments were inadequate. That case by GSMC, however, is not the one before the court today. GSMC is now in bankruptcy, and is not a party to the case before this court. Instead, this case was filed by others who claim that the failure of Continental to pay adequate damages to GSMC in a timely manner caused them damages. The plaintiffs brought suit against Conti- nental and against Hylant Group, Inc., their former in- surance broker.
