In its amicus brief, United Policyholders addresses important doctrinal questions regarding liability insurance coverage for liabilities arising from an employer’s negligent hiring, supervision, or retention of an employee that causes harm or commits an intentional tort. Specifically, United Policyholders’ brief addresses how it is necessary to determine the number of “occurrences” from the perspective of the insured policyholder-employer, not the employee.
