Allen v. Carman's Estate
281 So.2d 317, (Fla., Jul 31, 1973)
An employer not required to obtain w/c coverage
nevertheless decided to obtain coverage. Accordingly
he took out W/C with an insurance carrier. However he
failed to post in a conspicous place the fact that he
had a W/C carrier as required by Section 440.05. The
question is whether the employer can now claim the W/C
provisions as the sole remedy against a suit by the
employee. Court ruled that he could claim the W/C
provision as the sole remedy notwithstanding the fact
that the notice provisions had not been complied with.
