Supreme Court of Connecticut

National Waste Associates, LLC v. Travelers Casualty and Surety Company of America

January 19, 2010294 Conn. 511

Summary

The court affirmed summary judgment for the insurer in the insured's action seeking defense and indemnification under an employment practices liability policy. It adopted the trial court's reasoning that the policy's prior-litigation exclusion applied because the former employee's wrongful-discharge claim arose from the same facts previously addressed in unemployment-benefit proceedings, which constituted administrative proceedings under the policy.
