    SEC Disgorgement: Is It Insurable?

    By By Howard B. Epstein and Theodore A. Keyes | July 24, 2017

    In their Corporate Insurance Law column, Howard Epstein and Theodore Keyes discuss 'Kokesh v. SEC,' where the U.S. Supreme Court held that the SEC's use of disgorgement of profits as a remedy in an enforcement action constitutes a penalty that is subject to the federal five-year statute of limitations. They write: The question at issue for the Kokesh court was whether SEC disgorgement is a penalty. The question for the insurance community is whether it is insurable. The question for us is whether these two issues may overlap.

    Court of Appeals Curbs Coverage for 'Additional Insureds'

    By Joseph D. Nohavicka | July 6, 2017

    Joseph D. Nohavicka writes: In 2015, when the First Department handed down its decision in 'Burlington Insurance Company v. NYC Transit Authority', insurance law mavens noted that the court was continuing on a course of expansion of additional insured coverage. Recently, that course of expansion has reached its terminus at the Court of Appeals, which reversed the First Department by rejecting the argument that any additional insured obligation is owed under the language of the 'Burlington' endorsement at issue when the named insured is without fault.
