United States Fifth Circuit

In an action involving coverage for a myriad acts of theft over almost a decade under policies issued by defendant which protect plaintiff from employee theft, summary judgment for insurer is affirmed where, contrary to plaintiff's claim, the losses it suffered over a period of ten years constituted a single occurrence even though the scheme spanned multiple policy periods.
