In Fisher v. State Farm General Ins. Co., (1999 MT 308) 297 Mont. 201, 991 P.2d 452, the plaintiff was barred by res judicata from bringing a second action alleging violation of the Unfair Claims Practices Act after he had already litigated a case against the insurance company for denying his claims. The Supreme Court pointed out that Fisher had the opportunity to bring his Unfair Claims Practices Act claims in the first action. Id. at P20.
