Outcome

The Montana Supreme Court answered the certified question in the affirmative, holding that bad faith claims against an insurer accrue when the Workers' Compensation Court enters judgment on a specific disputed issue, even if the worker's ultimate disability determination remains unresolved. This ruling supported the lower courts' dismissal of O'Connor's claims as time-barred.
