School Professional Legal Liability
School Professional Legal Liability (SPLL) claims involve sexual harassment, discrimination, retaliation, wrongful termination and other allegations of wrongful acts that result from day-to-day operations of a school district.
Examples:
- Injuries arising out of student discipline or punishment
- Allegations of discrimination due to gender, age, and/or race
- Alleged violation of the Americans with Disabilities Act
- Free speech, due process and other civil rights violations
- Violations of Texas Labor Code, Chapter 451
- Whistleblower claims
- Violations of the Texas Public Information Act
Claims Made Provision
SPLL coverage is unique in that it is “Claims Made.” The coverage is triggered by a claim for damages, not a notice of an “occurrence” or “incident” with a specific date and time. Members should report claims when they become aware a wrongful act has been commited or is alleged.
