                                     OPINION



ROTH, Circuit Judge:

      The North Plainfield Board of Education appeals from the District Court’s March

17, 2011 order denying reconsideration of the District Court’s May 15, 2008 order

denying summary judgment, docketed as No. 11-1961. The Board also appeals from the




       *Honorable Louis H. Pollak, Senior Judge of the United States District Judge for
the Eastern District of Pennsylvania, sat by designation. Judge Pollak died on May 8,
2012; this opinion is filed by a quorum of the court pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 46 and the
Third Circuit I.O.P. 12.1(b).

                                            2
District Court’s April 13, 2011 final judgment, which dismissed with prejudice the

Board’s claims against National Union Fire Insurance Company of Pittsburgh,

Pennsylvania, docketed as No. 11-2323. Zurich American Insurance Company, a

defendant and third-party plaintiff, does not participate in either appeal.

       The Board alleged that, pursuant to a claims-made errors and omissions policy,

National Union owed it an unlimited duty to defend and indemnify in three underlying

actions: 1) Am. Motorists Ins. Co. v. North Plainfield Bd. of Educ., SOM-L-543-05 (N.J.

Sup. Ct.), 2) P.J. Smith Elec. Contractors, Inc. v. North Plainfield Bd. of Educ., No.

SOM-L-23-05 (N.J. Sup. Ct.), and 3) D&D Assocs., Inc. v. North Plainfield Bd. of Educ.,

No. 03-1026 (D.N.J.). On May 15, 2008, the District Court issued a Memorandum

Opinion and Order denying the Board’s motions for summary judgment in all three

actions and holding that National Union was obligated to pay up to an aggregate limit of

$100,000 for each of the three actions (i.e., $300,000 total). On March 17, 2011, the

District Court issued an Opinion and Order denying the Board’s motion for

reconsideration and finding that Flomerfelt v. Cardiello, 997 A.2d 991 (N.J. 2010), is not

an intervening change in the law. The District Court subsequently entered final

judgment.

       After consideration of all contentions raised by the Board on appeal, we affirm the

April 13, 2011 judgment of the District Court for essentially the reasons set forth in the

well-crafted May 15, 2008 and March 17, 2011 opinions of the District Court. Costs are

taxed against the Board.
