Although we question whether the count for common law bad faith for failure to defend can survive in this first party action against the insurer, the insurer has not shown irreparable harm and the writ of certiorari is therefore denied. Certainly any appropriate discovery which might be addressed to the common law count would be available in any event under the existing statutory bad faith count. Whether the insured’s settlement of the underlying claim in this case provides the necessary “determination of liability” should await the trial of this matter.

WRIT DENIED.
