06/06/2005 MOTION-OTHER SUBSTANTIVE PT Curtis Jones BY: PT Ben Crump 72583 TO ALLOW DEMONSTRATIVE EXHIBITS (O&7)
06/06/2005 ORDER-OTHER SUBSTANTIVE GR Petitioners' Motion to Allow Demonstrative Exhibits is hereby granted.
06/07/2005 ORAL ARGUMENT HELD
06/15/2006 DISP-QUASHED & REMANDED We answer the rephrased certified question in the negative and hold that an employee who receives compensation benefits for a workplace injury under these circumstances is not barred from filing an action against an employer for the injury. The employee has not consciously elected an inconsistent workers' compensation remedy under these circumstances, and if the claimant can demonstrate that the employer's conduct causing the workplace injury is to the level otherwise required by law for such action, there is no compensation bar. Accordingly, we quash the decision below, and remand with instructions to return the case to the trial court for further proceedings consistent with this opinion.
