  GULFPORT, Miss. (AP) - State Farm Fire and Casualty Company has settled another lawsuit with a policyholder whose home was destroyed in Hurricane Katrina.

Neither side would release terms of the agreement reached Friday between the insurer and Judy Guice, of Ocean Springs.

Guice sought full coverage of insured losses of more than 800-thousand dollars and punitive damages.

Guice had asked a federal judge to allow her to join other policyholders whose homes were reduced to slabs in a class action suit against the Bloomington, Illinois, insurer.

But U-S District Judge L-T Senter Junior denied her request earlier this year.
