Docket entry
100981 David White Crane Service v. Howell 09/16/2011 In a dispute concerning the scope and application of the exclusivity provisions of the Virginia Workers' Compensation Act, the defendants were entitled to the protection provided by Code § 65.2-307 notwithstanding their lack of workers' compensation insurance, because they were plaintiff's statutory co-employees. Thus, the circuit court erred in denying the defendants' plea in bar in a common-law personal injury action. The judgment of the circuit court is reversed and final judgment is entered dismissing the case.
