06.22.2021 RESOLUTION OF Board to Approve Litigation Against CSDSIP.pdf
Summary : The Douglas County School District RE-1 (the “District”) has a liability insurance policy with the Colorado School Districts Self Insurance Pool (“CSDSIP”) which grants broad liability coverage to the District including the duty to defend the District against certain claims. The District believes that CSDSIP is obligated to provide the District with a defense and indemnity against the claims made in this lawsuit but CSDSIP has denied coverage. The Board will consider whether it should authorize and support the filing of a lawsuit against CSDSIP asserting claims that the liability insurance policy the District has with CSDSIP covers the District for the lawsuit brought against it.
