2 sentences1993The relationship between the cross-employee exclusionary clause and the severability of interest clause was the subject of an exhaustive analysis by the Wyoming Supreme Court in Barnette v. Hartford Insurance Group, 653 P.2d 1375 (Wyo. 1982). 1993As noted by the majority, the policy excludes coverage for injury to "any fellow employee of the insured."
