   U.S. Court of Appeals Case No:  11-3867
                          and No:  11-3869
   U.S. District Court for the Western District of Missouri - Kansas City   
   [PUBLISHED] [Loken, Author, with Wollman and Beam, Circuit Judges]
   Civil case - Insurance. District court did not err in applying choice-of-
   law principles to determine that Kansas law applied to the dispute;
   Kansas courts would allow defendant's counterclaim alleging West had
   wrongfully rejected multiple settlement offers by underlying claimants
   prior to the arbitration of their state law claims to proceed, and the 
   district court erred in granting West summary judgment on defendant's
   counterclaim; dismissal of West's claims against defendant ASCK
   affirmed.
