Insurance companies send their clients (including public entities) loss run reports. These often have case numbers or names, as well as what type of incident is alleged, the running total cost (attorney fees, settlements, etc.) and the incident date.
It is an INCREDIBLE document when you need background, or information, on the total cost of a lawsuit.
It is also a great resource to find when a case has been settled.
Often, the insurance company will have spent more fighting a case than it did in settling it.
