Does the term "arising out of" and "employment related ... acts or omissions" apply to any claim or injury arising out of an employment termination?

MultiRegion, United States of America

The following excerpt is from HS Services, Inc. v. Nationwide Mut. Ins. Co., 109 F.3d 642 (9th Cir. 1997):

Read literally and broadly, the terms "arising out of" and "employment-related ... acts or omissions" would include any claim or injury connected in any way with employment termination, no matter how attenuated that connection. 2 We do not think the parties mutually intended the exclusion to be read so expansively. Our "fundamental goal" in interpreting this exclusion must be "to give effect to the mutual intention of the parties." Bank of the West v. Superior Court, 2 Cal.4th 1254, 1264, 10 Cal.Rptr.2d 538, 833 P.2d 545 (1992) (citation omitted).
