Energy Insurance Mutual v. Ace American Insurance
This insurance coverage dispute arises from a massive explosion that occurred when an unmarked petroleum pipeline was struck by an excavator. Numerous lawsuits were filed against a range of defendants, including the pipeline owner and the staffing agency providing personnel to the pipeline. After settling the lawsuits against the pipeline owner, an excess insurer for the pipeline sought to recover defense costs and settlement payments from the staffing agency’s insurer. The staffing agency’s excess insurance policy excluded damages arising from professional services. We affirm summary judgment in favor of the staffing agency’s insurer, finding the policy excluded the claims in the underlying lawsuits.
