U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Missouri - St. Louis
[PUBLISHED] [Bowman, Author, with Riley and Arnold, Circuit
Judges]
Civil Case - diversity. District court did not abuse its discretion in
excluding affidavits containing information that was irrelevant to policy
coverage. Under Missouri law, breach of duty under circumstances of
this case is not an "occurrence" within meaning of insurance policy and
district court did not err in concluding insurance companies were not
obligated to indemnify insured for breach of fiduciary duty claim.
