Third Thursday--C&M's September Labor & Employment Update: Obligations under VEVRAA and Section 503 of the Rehabilitation Act

Event | 09.19.13, 12:00 AM UTC - 12:00 AM UTC

Please join us for the next edition of Third Thursday – Crowell & Moring's Labor and Employment Update, a webinar series dedicated to helping our clients stay on top of developing law, emerging compliance issues, and best practices.

This month's webinar will address the two long-awaited Final Rules issued by the Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) in the last week of August, which overhaul -- and significantly expand -- contractor and subcontractor obligations under VEVRAA and Section 503 of the Rehabilitation Act.  Our panelists will discuss: (1) the key new requirements imposed on contractors, including the utilization goals, benchmarks, and record-keeping requirements set forth in the Final Rules; (2) elements of the proposed rule that were not included in the proposed rule, and what those omissions mean; (3) the timeline for implementation of the Final Rules; and (4) practical tips for contractors to consider as they come into compliance.

This webinar is scheduled for Thursday, September 19 at 12:00 pm EDT.  We hope that you can join us for this timely and lively discussion.

Has the Buss Stopped? Recoupment Today

Has the Buss Stopped? Recoupment Today: In 1997, the California Supreme Court decided Buss v. Superior Court. In Buss, the court concluded that a liability insurer that defended a mixed action could seek reimbursement from the insured for the defense costs associated with the claims that were not even potentially covered. Since then, numerous courts have held that insurers are entitled to recoup their defense costs associated with uncovered claims or causes of action. On the other hand, a significant number of courts have rejected insurers’ right to recoupment, at least in the absence of a policy provision granting the insurer that right. Some commentators have even suggested that the current judicial trend might be away from permitting insurers to recoup their defense costs. Is that correct? Has the Buss stopped? This panel of coverage experts will analyze insurers’ claimed right to recoupment today, and offer their perspectives on what the law on recoupment should perhaps be and might be in the future.
