*1 Before: GRABER, IKUTA, and HURWITZ, Circuit Judges.
*2 Josh Pemberton appeals from the entry of summary judgment in favor of Metropolitan Property and Casualty in this insurance coverage dispute. We have jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 1291, and we affirm.
The district court correctly determined that Metropolitan had no duty to defend or indemnify Karen and Kenneth Nieto because their liability did not arise from an “occurrence” as defined in the policy. Pemberton’s injuries did not result from an “accident” because Karen and Kenneth Nieto each engaged in deliberate acts and the injuries were a reasonably foreseeable result of those acts, see Safeco Ins. Co. of Am. v. Butler , 823 P.2d 499, 509 (Wash. 1992); Grange Ins. Ass’n v. Roberts , 320 P.3d 77, 87 (Wash. Ct. App. 2013), regardless whether the Nietos subjectively intended to injure Pemberton, see Butler , 823 P.2d at 510; United Servs. Auto. Ass’n v. Speed , 317 P.3d 532, 540 (Wash. Ct. App. 2014).
Because his injuries did not result from an “accident,” Pemberton cannot establish that “the loss falls within the scope of the policy’s insured losses.” Moeller v. Farmers Ins. Co. of Wash. , 267 P.3d 998, 1001 (Wash. 2011) (quoting McDonald v. State Farm Fire & Cas. Co. , 837 P.2d 1000, 1003–04 (Wash. 1992)). Summary judgment was therefore proper.
AFFIRMED.
