Trial Court Opinion

6 UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT 7 WESTERN DISTRICT OF WASHINGTON 8 AT SEATTLE USI INSURANCE SERVICES NATIONAL, INC., formerly known as NO. 2:17-cv-01394-SAB WELLS FARGO INSURANCE SERVICES USA, INC., 14 Plaintiff, 15 v. JOINT PRETRIAL ORDER STANLEY OGDEN, an individual; ELENOR O’KEEFE, an individual; JOHN HASKELL, JR., an individual; and ABD INSURANCE AND FINANCIAL SERVICES, INC., a Delaware corporation, 21 Defendants.

23 JURISDICTION 24 Defendants removed this case to this Court on September 15, 2017, asserting federal jurisdiction based on diversity under 28 U.S.C. § 1332(a). The United States District Court for the Western District of Washington has jurisdiction over this matter under 28 U.S.C. § 1332(a) because there is complete diversity of citizenship between the parties and Defendants have a good faith belief that more than $75,000, exclusive of interest and costs, is at stake. Plaintiff does not dispute the Court’s jurisdiction over this matter on the basis asserted by Defendants.

3 CLAIMS AND DEFENSES A. Plaintiff’s Claims 5 When federal courts sit in diversity—as in this case—they must apply the substantive law of the state where they sit. See Erie R.R. Co. v. Tompkins, 304 7 U.S. 64, 58 S. Ct. 817 (1938). Plaintiff intends to pursue damages for the following claims against Defendants based on Washington law, for which the Court has already entered summary judgment as to liability in Plaintiff’s favor: 10 1. Breach of contract (against Defendants Stanley Ogden, Eleanor O’Keefe, and John Haskell, Jr.); and 12 2. Common law tortious interference with contract and/or business expectancy (against Defendant ABD Insurance and Financial Services, Inc. (“ABD”)).

15 In addition, Plaintiff intends to pursue the following claim against Individual Defendant Stanley Ogden based on Washington law: 17 3. Breach of Washington’s common law duty of loyalty (against Defendant Stanley Ogden only).

19 B. Defendants’ Defenses 20 Defendants intend to pursue the following affirmative defenses at trial: 21 1. Waiver; 22 2. Estoppel; 23 3. Unclean hands; and 24 4. Failure to mitigate damages.

25 Plaintiff contends that Defendants’ affirmative defenses of waiver, estoppel, and unclean hands are precluded by this Court’s summary judgment order as to liability in Plaintiff’s favor. Plaintiff does not object to Defendants’ affirmative defense of failure to mitigate damages.

1 ADMITTED FACTS 2 The following facts are admitted by the parties: 3 1. Defendant Stanley Ogden began working for Pettit-Morry Co. (“Pettit-Morry”), a Washington insurance brokerage, in 1987. In exchange for the purchase of all of Mr. Ogden’s outstanding capital stock in Pettit-Morry, Mr. Ogden entered into an Agreement and Covenant Not to Compete.

7 2. Defendant Eleanor O’Keefe began working for Pettit-Morry in 1986.

8 In exchange for the purchase of all of Ms. O’Keefe’s outstanding capital stock in Pettit-Morry, Ms. O’Keefe entered into an Agreement and Covenant Not to Compete.

11 3. Through a series of corporate mergers, Pettit-Morry was ultimately acquired by Wells Fargo Insurance Services USA, Inc. (“WFIS”), which was in turn later acquired by Plaintiff USI Insurance Services National, Inc. (“USI”).

14 4. Lewis Dorrington began working for an entity then known as ABD Insurance and Financial Services (which was a different corporate entity from Defendant ABD, but which employed and was led by several of the same individuals) in November 2004. This earlier ABD was also thereafter acquired by WFIS.

19 5. In 2013 and 2015, Defendant John Haskell, Jr. signed new employment contracts with WFIS.

21 6. While Lewis Dorrington was still employed by WFIS and after Haskell started working at ABD, Haskell met with Dorrington.

23 7. During the meeting between Dorrington and Haskell, while Dorrington was still employed by WFIS and Haskell was employed by ABD, Haskell provided Dorrington with the name of ABD’s President, Kurt de Grosz.

26 8. Before Stanley Ogden resigned from WFIS, he told ABD’s Kurt de Grosz that he (Stanley Ogden) had a book of business of approximately $1.6 million and mentioned the names of certain clients, including Trident Seafoods and Harley Marine.

3 9. Without waiving their rights to appeal, the parties agree that the Court made the following determinations on summary judgment: 5 a. USI is entitled to enforce certain employment contracts Defendants 6 Stanley Ogden, Eleanor O’Keefe, and John Haskell, Jr. had entered with 7 USI’s predecessor, WFIS.

8 b. Both Ogden and O’Keefe had enforceable contracts with WFIS that 9 included a provision wherein they agreed, for a period of three years after 10 the termination of their employment with WFIS or its successors, not to 11 “participate directly or indirectly in the handling of the insurance 12 business of … any person, firm or entity which has been a client or 13 customer of [their former employer] within two years prior to the date of 14 termination of” their employment.

15 c. Both Ogden and O’Keefe breached that provision in their contracts by 16 continuing to handle the insurance business of WFIS clients after they 17 began working for ABD.

18 d. Haskell had an enforceable contract with WFIS that included a provision 19 wherein he agreed, for a period of two years following the termination of 20 his employment, not to “solicit, recruit or promote the solicitation of any 21 employee . . . of [his former employer] for the purpose of encouraging 22 that employee . . . to leave the Company’s employ . . .”

23 e. Haskell did not breach any other provisions in his contract with USI’s 24 predecessors, including that he did not breach the confidentiality or 25 nonsolicitation-of-client provisions in that contract.

26 f. ABD tortiously interfered with USI’s contractual expectations when 27 Ogden and O’Keefe continued handling insurance business of USI clients 1 and when Haskell assisted ABD in recruiting his former co-worker, 2 Lewis Dorrington.

3 g. None of the following individuals who left WFIS to work at ABD 4 breached any contractual or other duties they may have owed to USI or 5 its predecessors: Lewis Dorrington, Cory Anderson, Mary Mark, or 6 Marcia Ogden.

7 ISSUES OF LAW 8 A. The following are issues of law that both Parties agree remain to be determined by the Court (either by appropriate jury instructions or after post-trial motions): 11 1. Is any party entitled to attorneys’ fees and costs under RCW 4.84.330?

13 2. Is Plaintiff entitled to prejudgment interest?

14 3. Any other challenges to the admissibility of evidence raised in the parties’ motions in limine or other evidentiary objections at trial.

16 B. The following are additional issues of law that Plaintiff believes remain to be determined by the Court: 18 1. Should Defendants be precluded from offering expert or lay opinion testimony regarding Plaintiff’s damages?

20 2. Should Defendants be precluded from offering testimony or evidence regarding consumer banking practices or alleged fraud and/or criminal conduct by Wells Fargo Bank or any of its subsidiaries?

23 C. The following are additional issues of law that Defendants believe remain to be determined by the Court (either by appropriate jury instructions or after post-trial motions): 26 1. Did Plaintiff prove with reasonable certainty that it would have earned additional, net profits if Stanley Ogden had not handled the business of his former WFIS customers after his employment with Plaintiff terminated?

1 2. If so, then what damages, if any, did USI suffer as a result of defendant Stanley Ogden’s handling of business from his former WFIS customers in breach of his contractual commitments to Plaintiff?

4 3. Did Plaintiff prove with reasonable certainty that it would have earned additional, net profits if Eleanor O’Keefe had not handled the business of her former WFIS customers after her employment with Plaintiff terminated?

7 4. If so, then what damages, if any, did USI suffer as a result of Eleanor O’Keefe’s handling of business from his former WFIS customers in breach of his contractual commitments to Plaintiff?

10 5. Did Plaintiff prove with reasonable certainty that it would have earned additional, net profits if John Haskell had not promoted the solicitation of Lewis Dorrington to change employers to ABD?

13 6. If so, then what damages, if any, did USI suffer as a result of defendant John Haskell’s promotion of the solicitation of Lewis Dorrington to change employers to ABD in breach of Haskell’s contractual commitment to Plaintiff?

17 7. Did Plaintiff prove that Defendant Stanley Ogden owed a common law duty of loyalty to Plaintiff?

19 8. If Plaintiff proved that Defendant Stanley Ogden owed a common law duty of loyalty to Plaintiff, did Plaintiff also prove that Stanley Ogden breached that duty by disclosing protectable, confidential information about his clients to Defendant ABD in order to solicit business while he was still employed by WFIS?

23 9. If Plaintiff proved that Stanley Ogden breached a duty of loyalty to USI by disclosing protectable, confidential information about his clients to defendant ABD in order to solicit business while he was still employed by WFIS, did Plaintiff also prove with reasonable certainty that it would have earned additional, net profits if Stanley Ogden had not committed that breach of duty of loyalty to Plaintiff?

1 10. If so, then what damages, if any, were proximately caused by such breach?

3 11. Did Plaintiff waive any of its claims for relief, in whole or in part?

4 12. Should Plaintiff be estopped from recovering damages, in whole or in part, on any of its claims because it made a statement to a Defendant that caused that Defendant to fail to perform his or her contract with Plaintiff?

7 13. Does the equitable defense of unclean hands bar Plaintiff, in whole or in part, from recovering on any of its claims?

Additionally, although Defendants have identified certain exhibits they may use at trial (Exhibits 501-525, above), Defendants do not admit or stipulate to their admissibility. The exhibits may be objectionable, in whole or in part, or may only be admissible for a limited purpose.

ADDITIONAL STIPULATIONS Subject to the approval of the Court, the parties also propose the following stipulations: 1. The parties stipulate and agree that by 5:30 p.m. on each day of trial, they will disclose to the opposing party the witnesses to be called to testify the following trial day.

2. The parties stipulate and agree that any damages on Plaintiff’s claim for Tortious Interference with Contract against ABD derive from and are coextensive with Plaintiff’s damages, if any, on its claims for Breach of Contract against Defendants Ogden, O’Keefe, and Haskell. Consequently, because the Court has already ruled that ABD is liable on Plaintiff’s claim for Tortious Interference with Contract, the amount of damages to be awarded to Plaintiff on its claim for Tortious Interference with Contract against ABD shall be affixed by the Court at the total amount of damages awarded, if any, on Plaintiff’s claims for Breach of Contract against Defendants Ogden, O’Keefe, and Haskell. The jury in this trial will not be asked to award any damages or make any findings on Plaintiff’s claim for Tortious Interference with Contract against ABD. This liability shall be joint and several with any liability on Plaintiff’s claims for Breach of Contract, and not additive. The Parties reach this stipulation without prejudice to Defendants’ rights to appeal any of the Court’s liability findings against any of Defendants on any of Plaintiff’s claims, and nothing in this stipulation constitutes or shall be construed as an admission of liability by any Defendant.

9 3. The parties stipulate and agree that Joe Misenti, a third-party witness disclosed by Defendants, may testify via perpetuation videotaped deposition due to scheduling conflicts with a family vacation, and that the parties agree to coordinate to find a mutually agreeable date for that perpetuation deposition sufficiently in advance of trial to have the videotaped deposition available at trial and any objections to its admission ruled on in advance by the Court.

15 // // // // // // // // // // // // // // 1 ACTION BY THE COURT (a) This case is scheduled for trial before a jury on March 1, 2023.

3 (b) This order has been approved by the parties as evidenced by the signatures of their counsel. This order shall control the subsequent course of the 5|| action unless modified by a subsequent order. This order shall not be amended except by order of the Court pursuant to agreement of the parties or to prevent manifest injustice.

8 IT IS SO ORDERED. The District Court Clerk is hereby directed to enter 9)| this Order and to provide copies to counsel.
