A consumer group is suing California's insurance commissioner over potential surcharges on homeowners' insurance policies.
These surcharges aim to recoup billions of dollars in losses incurred by the California Fair Plan after devastating wildfires.
The lawsuit claims the commissioner violated state law by approving a deal allowing insurers to pass costs onto policyholders.
Consumer Watchdog argues this action unfairly burdens homeowners while leaving insurance company profits untouched.
