  PER CURIAM.
  This is an appeal from a decision of the District Court for the District of South Carolina, Florence Division, in a trial without a jury. The court held the defendant insurance company liable for the payment of judgments obtained against its insured over and above the $10,000.00 limit of policy coverage because of the company’s negligence and bad faith in failing to accept repeated offers to settle tort claims against the named insured within the policy limit.
  We affirm on the opinion of the district court.
  Affirmed.
